Units of stress tensor in vasprun.xml

#1 Post by michaeleric.williams » Thu Jan 24, 2008 1:55 pm

I have been unable to locate documentation as to the units of the stress tensor as reported in vasprun.xml. I wonder if they are reported in eV/reduced length but this doesn't make any sense to me physically. Please explain.
