How to convert X-units to microns
1 x-unit is equal to 1.00208 × 10⁻⁷ microns, and 1 micron is equal to 9,979,243.174 X-units. To convert, multiply by the conversion factor:
microns = X-units × 1.00208 × 10⁻⁷
microns = X-units ÷ 9,979,243.174Example: convert 1 xu to µ: 1 × 1.00208 × 10⁻⁷ = 1.00208 × 10⁻⁷ µ.

About the x-unit
The X-unit (about 1.002 × 10⁻¹³ m) was used to express X-ray and gamma-ray wavelengths before the ångström and picometer became standard.
