Section 3 is pretty explicit on use of SI, but doesn't lay down the law explicitly:
http://www.aip.org/pubservs/style/4thed/sec3.pdf But having published in AIP myself, the LAST thing you want is to have some reviewer jump all over you for something trivial, like inappropriate units. So that's motivation enough, even for the non-SI inclined. Nat Just go to http://www.aip.org/pubservs/style/4thed/toc.html to download a free copy of the AIP Style Manual.

The American Institute of Physics (AIP) Style Manual virtually *mandates* "metric" units, which can be interpreted to include cgs units. The AIP consists of most American scientific societies as members. My edition of the AIP manual is many years old. Later editions may specify SI, I'm not sure. That's worth a Web search. Bill, Bill, or Jim, do you know?
