as stated in the top line of the documentation of input:
All quantities whose dimensions are not explicitly specified
are in RYDBERG ATOMIC UNITS
What may not be completely clear is that the charge is "number"
charge, i.e. not multiplied by e; potentials are energies, i.e.
multiplied by e. So, charge is in (Bohr radii)^{-3}
