What is the density of this atomic solid ... 

Perhaps the most widely discussed source of uncertainty in electrostatic calculations is the location of the solute/solvent boundary. The most common treatment is to place the boundary at the surface of a set of overlapping spheres centered at the nuclei. But what radius should one use for those spheres One common answer is van der Waals radii times I.2.46 In our own quantum mechanical solvation models,12 27 and those of several others59, 69, these radii are empirical parameters. Recently Barone et al.70 have modified the PCM to use charge-dependent united-atom spheres instead of all-atom spheres, and they optimized the electrostatic radii for a...

The atomic radius is the distance between the nucleus and the outermost electron. Atomic radii are measured in nanometers (10 9 meters). In some fields, atomic radii are measured in a unit known as an angstrom, A (10 10 m or of a nanometer). Hydrogen is the smallest atom, measuring only 0.037 nm or 0.37 A. 

Hence if l/fiy/a, light-seconds is small in comparison with the atomic radius, the atomic radius will be large for the units employed in (10 ).
