Abstract
Abstract
The bra and ket notation introduced by Dirac and the dimensional analysis are two powerful tools for the physicist. Curiously, almost nothing is said about the connections between these two topics in the literature. We show here that the notion of dimensions is relevant for bras and kets. This could help students to grasp a better comprehension of this abstract notation.
