We discuss the implications of a new proposed approach to determine aHLOμ and αQED by using space-like kinematics.

The present paper derives the radiative corrections for the electron and positron cores in the Planck vacuum theory, leading to the electron and position particles in a 7-dimension spacetime. The physical meaning of the fine structure constant is twofold: it is the ratio of the electron spin coefficient to the electron-core spin coefficient; and it is the probability that an electron or positron will emit or absorb a photon. The nature of this photon defines the spin quanta in the PV theory. Results suggest that the Feynman and Schwinger QED calculations refer to the PV state. Finally, the closed-loop electron-positron pairs in the Feynman diagrams are explained.

Astrophysical tests of current values for dimensionless constants known on Earth, such as the fine-structure constant, α , and proton-to-electron mass ratio, μ = m p / m e , are communicated using data from high-resolution quasar spectra in different regions or epochs of the universe. The symmetry wavelengths of [Fe II] lines from redshifted quasar spectra of J110325-264515 and their corresponding values in the laboratory were combined to find a new limit on space-time variations in the proton-to-electron mass ratio, ∆ μ / μ = ( 0.096 ± 0.182 ) × 10 − 7 . The results show how the indicated astrophysical observations can further improve the accuracy and space-time variations of physics constants.

I will report on the recent measurement of the fine structure constant below 1 GeV with the KLOE detector. It represents the first measurement of the running of α(s) in this energy region. Our results show a more than 5σ significance of the hadronic contribution to the running of α(s), which is the strongest direct evidence both in time-and space-like regions achieved in a single measurement. From a fit of the real part of Δα(s) and assuming the lepton universality the branching ratio BR(ω → µ+µ−) = (6.6 ± 1.4stat ± 1.7syst) · 10−5 has been determined
