Formally, the base unit of time is the agrima (symbol agm), that is defined as the fixed numerical value of the Caesium frequency, ΔνCs, the unperturbed ground-state hyperfine transition frequency of the Caesium 341 133 atom, to be 11,4531,1421,2434.4 17,023,392,166.6̅ when expressed in the unit avrita (symbol avt), which is equal one cycle or event per agrima, or agm−1.
Civil time is divided as such:
- 1 day is comprised of 100,0000 46,656 agrimas (agm);
- 1 day is divided into 100 36 utas (uta);
- 1 uta is divided into 100 36 poshas (psh);
- 1 posha is divided into 100 36 agrimas (agm);
- 1 agrima is divided into 100 36 anugas (ang);
- 1 anuga is divided into 100 36 bodas (bda).
Those can be displayed as:
55:55:55(.5555...)
Where 55 35 represents a number from 00 00 to 55 35
Civil time can also be expressed in terms of agrimas or days:
