algolib.physics.constants module

CODATA-based physical constants in SI units.

Notes

All values are provided in SI base units.
rel_unc is the relative standard uncertainty. A value of 0.0 indicates an
exact value as defined by the 2019 SI redefinition (e.g., c, h, e, k_B, N_A).
Source label reflects the CODATA release used to curate the numbers.

Bases: object

Container for a physical constant in SI units.: Parameters

unitstr: Unit string, e.g. “m s^-1”, “J s”, “C”.
rel_uncfloat | None: Relative standard uncertainty (e.g. 1.5e-10); use 0.0 for exact constants per the 2019 SI definitions.
sourcestr: Provenance label, e.g. “CODATA 2022”.
symbolstr: Conventional symbol such as c, h, k_B.
