Hi martin,
your first problem seems to be to make a plot with given units. Here is
a simple example: we wannt to plot Sin[x] where the x axis has units of
Pi and the y axis units of 1/10:
Plot[10 Sin[Pi x],{x,0,2}]
Now we add italic labels:
Plot[10 Sin[Pi x],{x,0,2},AxesLabel-> {StyleForm["Units of
Pi",FontSlant->Italic],StyleForm["Units of 1/10",FontSlant->Italic]}]
hope this helps, Daniel
