What are the units of vectors and dual vectors?
And where do the the units in the metric need to be placed so that [itex]V^{\mu}V_{\mu}[/itex] is a scalar?
Taking charge density and current density that combine as a 4-vector, [itex]J^{\mu} \partial_{\mu}[/itex], and it's dual vector [itex]J_{\mu} dx^{\mu}[/itex], which units go where on the these vector coefficients and which on their vector basis?
