GeV to eV Converter
Convert gigaelectronvolt to electronvolt instantly. 1 GeV = 1000000000 eV, worked steps and a full reference table.
How to use it
- Type the value in gigaelectronvolt — the result updates as you type.
- Use Swap to flip the direction, or change either dropdown to convert between any two units.
- Click the result to copy it. The URL updates too, so you can bookmark or share the exact conversion.
Examples
| 1 GeV | 1000000000 eV |
| 5 GeV | 5000000000 eV |
| 10 GeV | 10000000000 eV |
| 100 GeV | 100000000000 eV |
One gigaelectronvolt equals 1.0000e+9 electronvolts (eV). To convert gigaelectronvolts to electronvolts, multiply by 1.0000e+9; to go back the other way, multiply by 1.0000e-9 instead.
The converter above does it as you type and shows the working underneath, so you can check the arithmetic rather than take the number on trust.
What gigaelectronvolts and electronvolts actually measure
Gigaelectronvolt (GeV) — A gigaelectron-volt is a billion electron-volts. Particle accelerators and high-energy physics.
Electronvolt (eV) — An electron-volt is the energy one electron gains crossing one volt — 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ joules. Atomic and particle physics, and semiconductor band gaps.

How to convert gigaelectronvolts to electronvolts by hand
Multiply the number of gigaelectronvolts by 1.0000e+9.
For example, 25 GeV × 1.0000e+9 = 2.5000e+10 eV.
Going the other way, divide by 1.0000e+9 — or multiply by 1.0000e-9, which is the same thing and easier to do in your head.
Everything runs in your browser
There is no server involved in the calculation. The numbers you type never leave your device, nothing is logged, and the page keeps working with no connection once it has loaded. That is not a marketing line — it is simply how the tool is built, because a calculation like this has no reason to touch a network.
Questions people ask
How many eV are in 1 GeV?
1 GeV equals exactly 1000000000 eV. Multiply any value in gigaelectronvolt by 1000000000 to get electronvolt.
Is anything uploaded to a server?
No. The whole calculation happens in your browser. Nothing is sent anywhere, and the page keeps working offline once loaded.
