About this document
1972 PhysRevLett.29.1346 by rodrigo.menezes is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document presents direct measurements of the frequency and wavelength of a methane-stabilized laser, yielding a new speed of light value of 299,792,456.2 m/sec, which is significantly more accurate than previous values. The research highlights the importance of stable lasers in measuring fundamental constants and discusses the implications for defining the meter and the speed of light. The findings suggest that further refinement in measurement techniques could enhance the accuracy of these fundamental
