Title: Could the mystery of 1/137 (the Alpha Constant) may hide in pi?
Post by: The Wizard of pi on 08/06/2018 01:30:52
Hi, I have some crazy ideas and I thought I could find some crazy people like myself here (with all due respect) that may be...just maybe interested in sharing some opinions on this subject. I have posted some of those crazy thoughts on my web site: symbiosissitedotwordpressdotcom/2017/02/22/pi-energy-and-mass
If you are bored and have nothing else to do, I recommend you to waste some of your precious time in reading those articles of mine. If you think of criticizing me for my horrible English, my lack of fancy physical or mathematical equations to prove something no body will even waste time in checking them for veracity... don't! I got over it all these years. So...!
have fun and insult me later OK?  :o ::) ??? :-X :-\

Welcome to the forum and thank you for post.
We have a special section for the discussion of new theories so we’ll move it there.
Rather than just providing a link, which many people won’t bother to follow, it would be best to give a summary of the main tenet of your idea, which if I read your site correctly has to to with π being irrational and hence any volume of space measurement being indeterminate.

Nothing mysterious about α. It just happens to have a value "fairly close to" 1/137. If you take any dimensionless combination of fundamental or derived constants you will end up with a number "fairly close to" a rational number.
