“Fundamental Constants in Physics and their Time Dependence”

Prof. Dr. Harald FRITZSCH
Munich University

Abstract:

In the Standard Model of Particle Physics there are 28 Fundamental constants. In the experiments these constants can be measured, but theoretically they are not understood.

I will discuss these constants, which are mostly mass parameters. Astrophysical measurements indicate that the finestructure constant depends on time. Grand unification implies a time variation of the QCD scale. Thus the masses of the atomic nuclei and the magnetic moments of the nuclei will depend on time.
