Explicitly include hbar in computations. #4

Open i2000s opened 10 years ago

i2000s commented 10 years ago

I have noticed that you have implicitly set _hbar = 1_. Could it be more realistic to explicitly use the usual hbar in all computing?

acroy commented 10 years ago

Well, hbar=1 is as realistic as any other choice of units :-) We shouldn't use hbar in SI units, but maybe provide an option to change the value (although I have to say that I can't imagine anyone wants to use something else than hbar=1 in the calculations).

Just to remind to document, at some stage, where the hbar is not shown in your code is because of using hbar=1.
