Abstract
Abstract: New expressions in terms of the proton charge radius are derived for the Sommerfeld or fine-structure constant, the proton to electron mass ratio and the elementary particles Wirkungsquanta. Through the derivation of these expressions, it was found that a small correction factor was needed to be applied on the currently accepted proton charge radius numeric value so that the calculated α values were matched with good relative standard uncertainties. Quasi-exact matches to the h-value were used to confirm the numerical value of the used proposed proton charge radius.
