Fine structure constant α derived from π and natural logarithm base e

Mikhail Vlasov <redact>

Fine structure constant α is linked with constant π, natural logarithm base e and natural number 138 by next equation :

                   α = sinc(1-(1/π)×tanh(π/138)),                        [1]

where

    sinc(x) = (sin(πx))/πx,             normalized sinc function
    tanh(x)=(e^x-e^(-x))/(e^x+e^(-x)),  hyperbolic tangent function
    138 = 2*3*23,                       represents electric field quanta -
                                        number of electric field states

where

    multiplicand 2   represents positive and negative electric charge,
    multiplicand 3   represents number of electric charge values 1/3, 2/3, 1,
    multiplicand 23  is hypothetically (Mikhail Vlasov) related to the strings
                     of the M-theory (Duff,Michael J. [1])
                     which are 1-dimensional slices of a 2-dimensional membrane
                     vibrating in 11-dimensional space.
                     As illustration, product (1+x)^11×(1+x)^11 contains 23 additives.

The equation [1] exhibits a discrepancy less than 2×10^(-8) in respect to the 2006 CODATA value for the fine structure constant. The discrepancy is attributed mostly to calculation tools. The approximation error is still worse than that of James Gilson’s 3×10^(-11) [2]. Nevertheless, equation [1] contains explainable natural number 138 unlike prime numbers 137 and 29 used in Gilson’s equation.

Other equivalent forms of the equation [1] for the fine structure constant reciprocal are

                   α^(-1) = (π-tanh(π/138))/sin(π-tanh(π/138))                  [2]
            α^(-1) = (π-tanh(π/138))/sin(tanh(π/138)) ≅ 137.0357±0.0003         [3]
