Relativistic Units

From the definition of 4-vectors shown earlier, we know that

[math]\mathbf{R} \equiv \begin{bmatrix} x^0 \\ x^1 \\ x^2 \\ x^3 \end{bmatrix}= \begin{bmatrix} ct \\ x \\ y \\ z \end{bmatrix}[/math]

The 4-vectors are defined to be in units of distance and as such the time must be multiplied by the speed of light to meet this requirement. For simplicity, the units of c can be chosen to be 1.

[math]E=\hbar \omega[/math]
