8 Measurement of the Gravitational Constant G
Measurement of the Gravitational Constant G 8 Measurement of the Gravitational Constant G F. Nolting, J. Schurr, E. Holzschuh, and W. K undig The most precise published results for the gravitational constant G have claimed uncertainties of about 100 ppm. Such measurements are usually done by some variant of the Cavendish torsion balance [1], but other methods have also been tried. During the l...
متن کامل2 a “ Running ” Gravitational Constant ?
If the gravitational interaction is unified with the electro-weak and strong interactions at a mass M = 10 15 GeV, the evolution of Newton's constant must differ from its classical (general relativistic) form. We can model such behavior by introducing an ad hoc dependence on ℓn(s/4m 2), where s is the usual cm energy between two protons. We can then predict the observable effects for relativist...
متن کاملA Measurement of the Cosmological Constant Using Elliptical Galaxies as Strong Gravitational Lenses
We have identified seven (field) elliptical galaxies acting as strong gravitational lenses and have used them to measure cosmological parameters. To find the most likely value for Ωm (= Ωmatter) and Λ, we have used the combined probabilities of these lens systems having the observed critical radii (or image deflection) for the measured or estimated values of lens redshifts, source redshifts, an...
متن کاملSimple pendulum determination of the gravitational constant.
We determined the Newtonian constant of gravitation G by interferometrically measuring the change in spacing between two free-hanging pendulum masses caused by the gravitational field from large tungsten source masses. We find a value for G of (6.672 34±0.000 14)×10(-11) m3 kg(-1) s(-2). This value is in good agreement with the 1986 Committee on Data for Science and Technology (CODATA) value...
متن کاملGRAVITATIONAL EQUILIBRIUM in THE PRESENCE of a POSITIVE COSMOLOGICAL CONSTANT
We reconsider the virial theorem in the presence of a positive cosmological constant Λ. Assuming steady state, we derive an inequality of the form ρ ≥ A(Λ/4πGN ) for the mean density ρ of the astrophysical object. The parameter A depends only on the shape of the object. With a minimum at Asphere = 2, its value can increase by several orders of magnitude as the shape of the object deviates from ...
