Quantum electrodynamics Planck constant

The 1998 adjustment of the values of the fundamental physical constants has been carried out by the authors under the auspices of the CODATA Task Group on Fundamental Constants [1,2]. The purpose of the adjustment is to determine best values of various fundamental constants such as the fine-structure constant, Rydberg constant, Avogadro constant, Planck constant, electron mass, muon mass, as well as many others, that provide the greatest consistency among the most critical experiments based on relationships derived from condensed matter theory and quantum electrodynamics (QED) theory. The 1998 CODATA recommended values of the constants also may be found on the Web at physics.nist.gov/constants. 

These interference patterns are wonderful manifestations of wave function behavior, and are not found in classical electronics or electrodynamics. Since the correspondence principle tells us that quantum and classical systems should behave similarly in the limit of Planck s constant vanishing, we suspect that adequate decoherence effects will change the quantum equation into classical kinetics equations, and so issues of crosstalk and interference would vanish. This has been...
