Self-consistent
gravitational constants are complete sets of fundamental constants,
which are self-consistent and define various physical quantities associated
with gravitation. These constants are calculated in the same way as
electromagnetic constants in electrodynamics. This is possible because in the
weak field equations of general relativity are simplified into equations of gravitoelectromagnetism, similar in form to
Maxwell's Equations. Similarly, in the weak field approximation equations of covariant theory of gravitation [1] turn into equations of Lorentz-invariant theory of gravitation
(LITG). LITG equations are Maxwell-like
gravitational equations, which are similar to equations of gravitoelectromagnetism. If these
equations are written with the help of self-consistent gravitational constants,
there is the best similarity of equations of gravitational and electromagnetic
fields. Since
in 19-th century there was no International System of Units, the first mention of gravitational constants was
possibly due to Forward (1961).[2]
In gravitational wave
representation, the set of gravitational constants depends on the speed of
propagation of gravity, in contrast to electromagnetic wave representation, in
which all space-time measurements and definition of physical quantities are
based on the speed of light.
Primary set of gravitational constants is:
1. First
gravitational constant: , which is the speed of gravitational waves in vacuum; [3]
2. Second gravitational constant: , which is the gravitational
characteristic impedance of free space.
Secondary set of gravitational constants is:
1. Gravitoelectric
gravitational constant (like electric
constant): where
is gravitational constant.
2. Gravitomagnetic
gravitational constant (like vacuum
permeability): If the speed of
gravitation is equal to the speed of light,
then [4]
Both, primary and
secondary sets of gravitational constants are selfconsistent, because they are
connected by the following relationships:
If then
gravitational characteristic impedance of free space be equal to: [5] [6]
In Lorentz-invariant
theory of gravitation the constant
in case
is contained in formula for
vector energy flux density of gravitational field
(Heaviside vector): [3]
where:
§ is gravitational field strength,
§ is gravitational torsion field.
For plane transverse uniform gravitational wave, in
which for amplitudes of field strengths holds according to Maxwell-like gravitational equations, may be written:
A
similar relation in electrodynamics for amplitude of flux density of
electromagnetic energy of a plane electromagnetic wave in vacuum, in which , is
as follows: [7]
where – Poynting
vector,
–
electric field strength,
–
magnetic flux density,
– vacuum permeability,
– impedance of free space.
Gravitational impedance of free
space was used in paper [8] to
evaluate the interaction section of gravitons with matter.
Connection with Planck mass and Stoney mass
Since gravitational
constant and speed of light are included in Planck mass , where
– reduced Planck
constant or Dirac constant, then gravitational characteristic impedance of free
space can be represented as:
,
where – Planck
constant.
There is Stoney mass, related to elementary charge and electric constant
:
.
Stoney mass can be
expressed through the Planck mass:
,
where is the electric
fine-structure constant.
This implies another
expression for gravitational characteristic impedance of free space:
.
Newton law for
gravitational force between two Stoney masses can be written as:
Coulomb's law for
electric force between two elementary charges is:
Equality of and
leads to equation for the Stoney mass
that was stated above. Hence the Stony mass may be
determined from the condition that two such masses interact via gravitation
with the same force as if these masses had the charges equal to the elementary
charge and only interact through electromagnetic forces.
Connection with fine structure constant
The electric fine structure constant is:
We can determine the
same value for gravitation so: with the
equality of the fine structure constants for both fields.
On the other hand,
the gravitational fine structure constant for hydrogen
system at the atomic level and at the level of star is also equal to fine
structure constant:
,
where – strong gravitational constant,
and
– the mass of proton and electron,
and
– mass of the star-analogue of proton and the
planet-analogue of electron, respectively,
– stellar Dirac constant,
– characteristic speed
of stars matter.
Strong
gravitational torsion flux quantum
The magnetic force between two fictitious elementary
magnetic charges is:
where is
the magnetic charge,
is
the magnetic coupling constant for fictitious magnetic charges.
[9]
The force of gravitational torsion field between
two fictitious elementary torsion masses is:
where is
gravitational torsion coupling constant for gravitational torsion mass
.
In case of equality of the above forces,
we shall get the equality of the coupling constants for magnetic field and
gravitational torsion field:
from which Stoney mass and
gravitational torsion mass could be derived:
Instead of fictitious magnetic charge the
single magnetic flux quantum Φ0 = h/(2e)
≈2.067833758(46)×10−15
Wb [10] has the real meaning in quantum
mechanics. On other hand at level of atoms the strong gravitation operates and
we must use strong gravitational constant. So, we believe
that the strong gravitational torsion flux quantum there should be important:
m2/s,
which is
related to proton with its mass and to its velocity
circulation quantum.
