Ronald Sherrod

I am a retired researcher with a strong background in mathematics, physics, and quantum mechanics. I am an active member of the Research Gate community of scientists. I love working on problems in physics that are considered unsolvable. I have been working for about two years on the research that led to my little book entitled, "Big G." There are two big problems that I have solved in this study, to my satisfaction, that have puzzled physicists for a long time. One has to do with whether the gravitational constant, G, can be related to the other fundamental constants in a way that it can be evaluated from them with far greater precision and accuracy than is obtainable by measurement. I show that this can indeed be done. Secondly, a surprise side-benefit of solving this problem is that it shows a 'hidden' integer ratio that composes the value of the fine-structure constant, α, a problem that has puzzled physicists for over a hundred years.
