They are an example of natural units, i.e. units of measurement designed so that certain fundamental physical constants are normalized to unity.

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online.In physics, Stoney scale units are units of measurement named after the Irish physicist George Johnstone Stoney, who first proposed them in 1881. They are an example of natural units, i.e. units of measurement designed so that certain fundamental physical constants are normalized to unity. The constants that Stoney units normalize are the following. Each of these constants can be associated with at least one fundamental physical theory: c with special relativity, G with general relativity and Newtonian gravity, e and E with electrostatics, and k with statistical mechanics and thermodynamics. Stoney units have profound significance for theoretical physics since they simplify several recurring algebraic expressions of physical law by nondimensionalization. They are particularly relevant in research on unified theories such as quantum gravity.
