Geometrized unit system
In physics, especially in the general theory of relativity, geometrized units or geometric units constitute a physical unit system in which all physical quantities are identified with geometric quantities such as areas, lengths, dimensionless numbers, path curvatures, or sectional curvatures. In this system, the base physical units are chosen so that the speed of light, c, and the gravitational constant, G, equal one.
