// HEP coherent system of Units
//
// This file has been provided by Geant4 (simulation toolkit for HEP).
//
// The basic units are :
//  		millimeter              (millimeter)
// 		nanosecond              (nanosecond)
// 		Mega electron Volt      (MeV)
// 		positron charge         (eplus)
// 		degree Kelvin           (kelvin)
//              the amount of substance (mole)
//              luminous intensity      (candela)
// 		radian                  (radian)
//              steradian               (steradian)
//
// Below is a non exhaustive list of derived and pratical units
// (i.e. mostly the SI units).
// You can add your own units.
//
// The SI numerical value of the positron charge is defined here,
// as it is needed for conversion factor : positron charge = e_SI (coulomb)
//
// The others physical constants are defined in the header file :
//			PhysicalConstants.h
//
// Authors: M.Maire, S.Giani
//
// History:
//
// 06.02.96   Created.
// 28.03.96   Added miscellaneous constants.
// 05.12.97   E.Tcherniaev: Redefined pascal (to avoid warnings on WinNT)
// 20.05.98   names: meter, second, gram, radian, degree
//            (from Brian.Lasiuk@yale.edu (STAR)). Added luminous units.    
// 05.08.98   angstrom, picobarn, microsecond, picosecond, petaelectronvolt
