The angular mmomentum of celestial bodies and the fundamental dimensionless constants of nature

  • 1. Ferrara Univ. (Italy). Ist. di Fisica

Description

It is suggested a possible connection between two empirical astrophysical laws concerning the angular momentum of celestial bodies.It is shown that both relations seem to indicate that the fine-structure constant α is the typical dimensionless parameter not only of atomic physics, but also of gravitational physics
