  10. Is there a good book or paper in which various constants of proportionality
  11. as well as electromagnetic quantities (such as 4-dim. electromagnetic vector
  12. potential and electromagnetic "matter tensors) are either shown explicitly
  13. (instead of having c = ... = 1) or, especially in the case of the electro-
  14. magnetic quantities, written in SI units, so that, for example, the
  15. Reissner-Nordstroem solution electric-charge-term in the metric appears
  16. with SI units of charge, distance, etc.?
  17.  
  18. Even if trying to figure it all out on one's own, it would be nice to have
  19. something to check against.
