Definitions specific to this category can be found in Definitions/Vacuum Permeability.
The vacuum permeability is the physical constant denoted $\mu_0$ defined as:
- $\mu_0:= \dfrac {2 \alpha h} {e^2 c}$
where:
- $e$ is the elementary charge
- $\alpha$ is the fine-structure constant
- $h$ is Planck's constant
- $c$ is the speed of light defined in $\mathrm m \, \mathrm s^{-1}$
Of the above, only the fine-structure constant $\alpha$ is a measured value; the others are defined.
It can be defined as the capability of a magnetic field to permeate a vacuum.
From Value of Vacuum Permeability, it has the value:
