Since Uncle Al's silence tells us something important but leaves a
physics question unanswered, I will complete the discussion myself.
(1) The value of the gravitational coupling factor G' has never been
measured within an Atomic Scale system.
(2) Virtually every physicist will tell you he/she is 100% certain
that G = 6.67 x 10^-8 cgs applies within Atomic Scale systems and
everywhere else in the Universe.
(3) Given (1), is (2) viable? Definitely not! Assumption (2) is pure
speculation, and indicates an unscientific attitude.
(4) Are there alternatives to (2)? Yes! And at least one very natural
and promising new paradigm. It is called Discrete Scale Relativity
and
you can explore this completely different understanding of nature at
www.amherst.edu/~rloldershaw .
(5) So what does Discrete Scale Relativity offer to make the time
spent studying it worthwhile?
(a) Explains the meaning of Planck's constant.
(b) Explains the meaning of the fine structure constant.
(c) Retrodicts the correct radius for the hydrogen atom.
(d) First correct Gravitational Bohr Radius.
(e) Correct radius of the proton.
(f) Correct mass of the proton with Kerr-Newman solution of GR+EM.
(g) Resolution of the Vacuum Energy Density Crisis.
(h) Range of galactic radii.
(i) Correct galactic spin periods.
(j) Correct binding energy for H atom.
(k) Much improved Planck Scale that is self-consistent and sensible.
Yours in science,
RLO
