Abstract

For problems involving simulations or theory of hyperfine interactions in materials, it is convenient to work in dimensionless coordinates of reasonable magnitude. Such a system is described here that constitutes a consistent and useful “natural” dimensionless unit system that simplifies point-charge approximations, scaling between different crystal structures, scaling charges of various defects in materials, and other computations involving hyperfine interactions. We present the proposed system with examples of its use for data analysis as well as for simulations and theory.
