Timeline for 1.5e-10 style scientific notation looks ugly in LaTeX math mode. How can I format it (kerning, etc) more nicely?

@erik It works in a different document but not in the one I want to. Apparently somewhere in the macros there is a conflict between the siunitx and some other package or it is just a bug.

@Gagik You should remove the leading 1. \SI{1e-10}{\meter\per\second} will show the 1x, whereas \SI{e-10}{\meter\per\second} should not.

@erik the outcome is still 1x10^-10. I wanna get rid of the 1x. This is the package I am using \usepackage[detect-all,load-configurations=si-abbr]{siunitx} and \sisetup{range-units=single,range-phrase=\,--\,,separate-uncertainty=true}.

@Gagik just use \SI{e-10}{\meter\per\second}

How can I produce "10^-10 m s^-1" instead of "1x10^-10 m s^-1 using \SI{1e-10}{\meter\per\second} ?

2 x 10^3 is nice, but 1 x 10^3 is verbose compared to just 10^3. To get that, use the nonintuitive invocation \num{e3}.

| Sep 27, 2015 at 22:37 | comment | added | erik | @tel I see. I didn't realize you specifically wanted to keep the 'e' notation. egreg's comment (and answer) offer an alternative, but the typesetting may not be what you want. | |
| Sep 27, 2015 at 22:29 | comment | added | tel | @erik that looks very nice, but what I really want to know is if there's a way to format the e-style notation nicely. Knowing how to do the alternative 1x10^-10 style doesn't really help me. Any ideas? | |

By adding \sisetup{output-exponent-marker=\ensuremath{\mathrm{e}}} to the preamble, one gets 1e-10 in the required way.
