The vertical axis of the original figure is angular frequency, in $10^{13}\mathrm{rad}{\mathrm{s}}^{-1}$, not ordinary frequency. Its zone-centre optical intercept is approximately ${\omega }_{+}(0)=4.8\times 10^{13}{\mathrm{s}}^{-1}$. Convert the relative atomic masses using $m_u=1.66054\times 10^{-27}\mathrm{kg}$:The long-wavelength inference of diatomic-chain parameters then givesNo factor $2\pi$ is needed because the graph already plots $\omega$.
