Dear Siesta Users

I am trying to understand the units used in the MM.Potentials input block to
use the Grimme potential in Siesta.
In the paper of Grimme, the C6 constant is given in (J/mol) nm^6. On the
other hand, the Siesta manual says that
MM.UnitsDistance is Angstrom and MM.UnitsEnergy is eV.
Well, I am thinking the the C6 constant should then be given in (eV) Ang^6.
Am I right?

Thanks in advance
