What are Hartree and Pound-force Inch

Hartree energy, denoted as E_h, is a physical constant used primarily in the field of atomic physics. It represents the unit of energy equivalent to the kinetic energy of an electron in a hydrogen atom orbiting in the ground state. One Hartree energy is approximately 4.3597447222071 x 10^-18 joules. It is a fundamental unit in the Hartree-Fock method for the calculation of atomic and molecular wave functions.

Pound-force inch, commonly abbreviated as lbf·in, is a unit of torque in the imperial and US customary systems of measurement. It represents the rotational force generated by a one-pound force applied at a radius of one inch from the axis of rotation. This unit is widely used in mechanical engineering, automotive, and aerospace industries to quantify the twisting or turning strength applied to objects such as bolts, nuts, and other fasteners.
