Comparison of fundamental-constant based definitions for the kilogram and the ampere

We have determined the influence of alternative definitions for the kilogram and the ampere on the uncertainty of h, e and m u . This has been achieved with a least-squares adjustment of a limited set of observational equations. We have evaluated the residual errors (and their uncertainties) from th...

description We have determined the influence of alternative definitions for the kilogram and the ampere on the uncertainty of h, e and m u . This has been achieved with a least-squares adjustment of a limited set of observational equations. We have evaluated the residual errors (and their uncertainties) from this adjustment, and used these to determine expansion factors to achieve results that are self-consistent. This enables us, inter alia, to evaluate the extent to which the experimentally-determined values of the "electrical" constants are sufficiently self-consistent to be used as the motivation for any proposed redefinition.
