About Torr (Torr)
Named after the Italian physicist Evangelista Torricelli, who invented the mercury barometer in 1644, the torr is approximately equal to one millimeter of mercury. Vacuum technology, thin-film deposition, and freeze-drying processes specify pressures in torr, with ultra-high vacuum defined as below 10^-9 torr.
About Millimeters of Mercury (mmHg)
Millimeters of mercury is the standard unit for blood pressure readings worldwide (e.g., 120/80 mmHg for a healthy adult) and for barometric pressure in some contexts. The unit derives from the height of a mercury column in a manometer, and 760 mmHg equals one standard atmosphere.
