Corrigendum to “Adjustment of fundamental physical constant values using the interval fusion with preference aggregation” [Measurement 163 (2020) 108037]

The status of fundamental physical constants is discussed. The nature of fundamental physical constants is cleared up, based on the analysis of the Boltzmann constant. A new definition of measurable values, 'mathematical' and 'physical' numbers and fundamental physical constants is proposed. Mathematical numbers are defined as values insensitive to the choice of both units and frames of reference, whereas 'physical numbers' are dimensionless values, insensitive to transformations of units and sensitive to the transformations of the frames of reference. Fundamental constants are classified as values sensitive to transformations of the units and insensitive to transformations of the frames of reference. It is supposed that a fundamental physical constant necessarily allows diminishing the number of independent etalons in a system of units.

Abstract This study introduces scientific concepts such as gravitational cells and gravitational strings. Gravitational cells and gravitational strings have been organically built into the concept of a gravitational field. This innovation has led to significant scientific results. These results include obtaining the formula for the gravitational constant, the formula for the electron mass, the formula for the mass of the hydrogen atom, the formula for the minimum distance of the action of the gravitational field, etc. All formulas were confirmed by experimental data. In this work, the Planck formula was successfully applied to the gravitational field. A distinctive feature of this study is the fact that most of the new formulas contain only fundamental physical constants (without introducing additional indicators and proportionality coefficients). In this work, the concept of a gravitational quantum is introduced and its value is determined. Also, a new physical constant was obtained - the mass of the gravitational cell of a black hole.

CODATA has recently published its readjustment of the fundamental physical constants and assigns a relative precision of 128 x 10-6 to G, the Newtonian constant of gravitation. Given that most of the other constants in physics have relative precisions of ~10-6 or better, we examine the reasons why the value for G remains so imprecise: The role of G in physics in general is considered and the most recent experimental determinations are examined. Constraints are given for perturbing effects in G measurements and a key result is that horizontal ground movements must be taken more carefully into account in future more precise terrestrial experiments.

International Research Project

In the international system of units, the kilogram in the only SI base unit still defined by a material artefact. In order to redefine this unit with a fundamental physical constant, an international research project was launched in 2004 for determining the Avogadro constant, NA, by counting the atoms in an isotopically enriched 28Si crystal. The counting procedure relies on the measurements of the molar and atomic volumes of 1 kg spheres made of the 28Si crystal. In 2011, the project succeeded in measuring the Avogadro constant with a smallest standard uncertainty, 3.0 × 10−8 NA. Because of an unexpected metallic contamination at the surface of the spheres, the measurement uncertainty was larger than the target of the project by a factor of 1.5. In order to further reduce the uncertainty, a new international research project was launched in 2012. Outline of the new project and the improvements of the measurements will be introduced at the forum. Note from Publisher: This article contains the abstract only.

The fine-structure constant (α) is a fundamental physical constant, i.e. the coupling constant characterizing the strength of the electromagnetic interaction. It is important to know why 1/α is approximately equal to the number 137, because this mysterious number very likely forms the link between three very important domains of physics: quantum mechanics, electromagnetism, and relativity. Since the Pythagorean prime number137 equals 4 squared plus 11 squared, it is here speculated that 1/α = 137 perhaps in some mysterious way reflects fundamental properties, for instance the 4 dimensions of Einstein’s space-time and the 11 dimensions of M-theory. Also, the number 4 might be related to the four forces, i.e. the electromagnetic force, the gravitational force and the strong and weak nuclear forces, or perhaps to another 4 and 11 combination of fundamental constants.

Newtonian Gravitational Constant

Abstract The Newtonian gravitational constant G, which is one of the most important fundamental physical constants in nature, plays a significant role in the fields of theoretical physics, geophysics, astrophysics and astronomy. Although G was the first physical constant to be introduced in the history of science, it is considered to be one of the most difficult to measure accurately so far. Over the past two decades, eleven precision measurements of the gravitational constant have been performed, and the latest recommended value for G published by the Committee on Data for Science and Technology (CODATA) is (6.674 08 ± 0.000 31) × 10−11 m3 kg−1 s−2 with a relative uncertainty of 47 parts per million. This uncertainty is the smallest compared with previous CODATA recommended values of G; however, it remains a relatively large uncertainty among other fundamental physical constants. In this paper we briefly review the history of the G measurement, and introduce eleven values of G adopted in CODATA 2014 after 2000 and our latest two values published in 2018 using two independent methods.
