Epstein system

The Epstein system is an -illion system by Louis Epstein devised in the 1980s. It is based on the long scale rather than short scale unlike most -illion systems. It begins at the commonly accepted vocabulary centillion which is defined as 10600 in the long scale. In the Epstein system numbers continue with SI prefixes representing the powers of a million:
*1,000,0001,000 = 106,000 = 1 kilillion
*1,000,0001,000,000 = 106,000,000 = 1 megillion
*1,000,0001,000,000,000 = 106,000,000,000 = 1 gigillion
*1,000,0001,000,000,000,000 = 106,000,000,000,000 = 1 terillion
*1,000,0001015 = 1 petillion
*1,000,0001018 = 1 exillion
*1,000,0001021 = 1 zettillion
*1,000,0001024 = 1 yottillion
and with the addition of new prefixes by the 2022 CGPM
*1,000,0001027 = 1 ronnillion
*1,000,0001030 = 1 quettillion
These names should not be confused with much larger names for Tier 3 short scale -illions by Jonathan Bowers.
