What are Hartree and Calorie

Definition of Hartree

Hartree energy, symbolized as Eh, is a physical constant that represents the unit of energy in atomic physics. It's named after the British physicist Douglas Hartree and is equivalent to the energy of an electron in the ground state of a hydrogen atom. This unit is part of the atomic units system and is used extensively in quantum chemistry and physics to simplify calculations involving atomic-scale energies.

Definition of Calorie

The Calorie, with a capital 'C', often referred to as the food calorie, is a unit of energy commonly used in nutritional contexts. It is equivalent to 1000 small calories or one kilocalorie (kcal), the standard unit of energy to express the energy value of foods. One Calorie is the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of one kilogram of water by one degree Celsius at a pressure of one atmosphere.
