Gravitational and Related Constants

Abstract

IN an earlier communication¹ some simple relationships between the fundamental constants e, h, c, G and α were proposed, where G is the usual gravitational constant and α the ratio of proton mass to electron mass. It is now possible to simplify and extend slightly the treatment used previously and to justify to a considerable extent the results then obtained; α will, however, now be taken as the ratio of the mass of the hydrogen atom to that of the electron.
