| Sep 23, 2015 at 2:52 | comment | added | Matthew Brunetti | @EmilioPisanty is this what you mean by atomic units? I don't see how that could be the case, considering that $e$ and $\hbar$ appear throughout the paper, and considering that $k$ does not appear (ie it is implied to be set to unity), I do not think that they are using atomic units where $e,\hbar=1$ | |
| Sep 22, 2015 at 23:55 | comment | added | Emilio Pisanty | That aside, this simply looks like atomic units. | |
