[US] [containing] [NIT] = [UNITS]
Eviscerate | Einstein's proposed universal formulation (3)
[GUT] = [GUT {Grand Unified Theory}]
Sonic result of | addition | to | power unit | may be partial (8)
[homophone] [SUM] [+] [WATT] = [SOMEWHAT]

Indian agency | untruths | about | small Polish onion rolls (7)
[BIA {Bureau of Indian Affairs}] [LIES] [=] [BIALIES]
Conductorless | noise | from | French department where Beauvais is located (4)
[no leader] [nOISE] [=] [OISE]
BIALIES (more commonly bialys) and OISE were the two words both Bill Butler and I missed, so I thought I'd concentrate on detailed definitions of them.
