At z = H: p(H)/p₀ = e⁻¹ exactly

Layer 1 — Physicsin the atmospheric-physics subtree

Closed-form evaluation of the barometric profile at its own scale height. Pressure ratio at z = H: p(H)/p₀ = exp(−H/H) = e⁻¹ (canonical sympy string "exp(-1)"), a transcendental constant depending on no atmospheric parameter. Extension:…
