Abstract:
According to incomplete statistics, there are more than 160 fundamental physical constants, covering all fields of physics. Since the Committee on Data for Science and Technology of the International Council for Science (CODATA) presented the first set of internationally recommended values in 1973, to date they have presented six further sets . This paper introduces the classification of the fundamental physical constants, and presents the main achievements recently published in this field. These new breakthroughs have vital significance in physics and metrology.The Newtonian constant of gravitation is an important constant for the measurement of universal gravitation and has far-reaching significance, but because of its extremely small value it is very difficult to measure. For more than two hundred years many scientists have been constantly improving and updating their techniques in order to reduce the uncertainties in measurement.
