The International System of Units (SI), 2019 Edition - NIST
nvlpubs.nist.govThe International System of Units, universally abbreviated SI (from the French Le Système International d’Unités), is the modern metric system of measurement. The SI is the dominant measurement system used in science and international commerce. In recognition of this fact, Congress has designated the metric system of measurement as the

Lecture Notes on General Relativity Columbia University
web.math.princeton.eduNote that from now on in order to emphasize the signature of the metric we will denote the Minkowski spacetime by R3+1. With respect to the above coordinate system, the metric g can be expressed as a (0,2) tensor as follows: g= dt2 + (dx1)2 + (dx2)2 + (dx3)2: (1.1) Note that (for an arbitrary pseudo-Riemannian metric) one can still introduce a ...
