Hi,
For style metal, the fore unit is eV/Angstrom. Is there any relationship between this unit and pN or kN? If yes, what is it? Thanks.

Hi,

dear anonymous lammps user(?),

For style metal, the fore unit is eV/Angstrom. Is there any
relationship between this unit and pN or kN? If yes, what is it?

yes. a force is a force, no matter what unit you use. to convert between
units, you can look up the respective conversion factors. a convenient
way is to break down everything into SI units and then convert back
and forth.
