Gravity
Modelled[M/P] convention-conditional package — Doctrine v1.1. See /gravity/m13-package and /status.Newton’s G as a Mach package
G is a named mixed-mass invert [M/P], not a free public theorem. Bricks α, √6, and H₀ stay explicit. One-convention Sciama+α does not recover H₀≃69.

The honest claim
In standard physics, Newton’s constant is a measured parameter. In this programme it is related to laboratory constants by a named Mach book (mixed-mass packing, double-copy [M], and a coefficient that is [E] only in the Sciama–Green slot at ). That is a package, not a closed theorem.
The Double-Copy Relation
The EM–gravity double copy (see EM–Gravity Double Copy) establishes that the gravitational coupling is related to the electromagnetic coupling by squaring the EM amplitude:
where is the gravitational fine-structure constant — the ratio of gravitational to EM coupling at the electron mass scale.
The double copy gives in the leading approximation (where is the EM fine-structure constant). This gives an immediate estimate of .
Mach Closure on S³
The universe has finite total mass (because is compact). The Mach closure condition — that the inertial frame is entirely determined by the universe’s matter content — gives:
Mach closure on S³ — the universe is exactly at its own Schwarzschild radius
Published invert (M13)
The live quantitative book is the mixed-mass invert
Bricks: is INPUT + placement [M]; is a Mach brick [M]; is the live prediction [P]. The 0.04% contact appears only if one recycles from this same invert — that is circular. External Planck / SH0ES values give percent-class residuals (see G prediction).
Lab census: a one-convention Green or raw book with does not hit the Hubble band. Putting the Green value into the raw slot is the splice that produces 69. That splice is not a derived coefficient.
Older double-copy estimates (order-of-magnitude only):
| Quantity | Value | Source |
|---|---|---|
| N·m²/kg² | Measured constants | |
| From fine-structure constant | ||
| N·m²/kg² | Older α² estimate (order of magnitude) | |
| N·m²/kg² | Measured |
The α² estimate is only an order-of-magnitude story. The quantitative public book is M13, and it is convention-conditional. See G prediction.
What is not claimed
- A one-convention derivation of the published coefficient .
- as an independent cosmology theorem.
- Local minting of from this invert.
