Dear Kwant developer,
Thank you for your effort in developing Kwant.
I have a question about the definition of the direction of momentum in the 
smatrix.lead_info. Assume a lead lies along the y direction with primitive 
vector (0,1).  The symmetry operation of  a lead is (0,1) if the lead goes 
towards the positive direction and is  (0,-1) if the lead goes towards the 
negative direction. For the momenta contained in smatrix.lead_info for these 
two leads , do they use the same coordinate system? Positive momenta mean the 
direction (0,1), negative momenta mean the direction (0,-1). For velocity, in 
smatrix.lead_info, it has nothing to do with the coordinate system. Positive 
means outgoing, negative means incoming in the lead.
Thank you
KS Chan
