🧮 Formula

US Tons (Short) to Solar Masses
M☉ = ton (US) × 4.56222 × 10⁻²⁸
Solar Masses to US Tons (Short)
ton (US) = M☉ × 2.19191 × 10²⁷

Where

  • ton (US) = the weight in short tons
  • M☉ = the weight in solar masses
Every unit here is defined by its weight in kilograms, so the conversion factor is (kilograms per short ton) ÷ (kilograms per solar mass).
