\item$V$ is the potential relative to the ECM $[mV]$
\item$a$ is the cable radius $(mm)$, and can vary with $x$
\item$c_m$ is the {specific membrane capacitance}, approximately the same for all neurons $\approx10~nF/mm^2$. Related to \emph{membrane capacitance}$C_m$ by the relationship $C_m=c_{m}A$, where $A$ is the surface area of the cell.
\item$i_m$ is the membrane current $[A]$. The total contribution from ion and synaptic channels is expressed as a the product of current per unit area $i_m$ and the surface area.
\item$i_m$ is the membrane current $[A\cdot/mm^{2}]$ per unit area. The total contribution from ion and synaptic channels is expressed as a the product of current per unit area $i_m$ and the surface area.
\item$i_e$ is the electrode current flowing into the cell, divided by surface area, i.e. $i_e=I_e/A$.
\item$r_L$ is intracellular resistivity, typical value $1~k\Omega\text{cm}$
