Style#
Vectors are written in bold-face, e.g. \(\mathbf{E}\)
Tensors are double underlined, e.g. \(\underline{\underline{\chi}}\)
Unit vectors are written with a hat, e.g. \(\hat{\mathbf{E}}=\mathbf{E}/E\)
Units at legends of graphs are separated using \(/\), e.g. for temperature in kelvin \(T/\mathrm{K}\)
