Speed of Light 1900 - 1984 Plus 2022 Ideal Plot


From: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_5sLs_6OR4Aukz0C_BZvikHfNcKEsy9Yzwmd9EOGNTA/edit?usp=sharing
Speed of Light (km/s) vs. Year
1900-2022*
*2022 value is from this work, shown for comparison


In 1983, the speed of light (km/s) was set to:
198317th CGPM, definition of the metre299792.458 (exact)[89]exact, as defined

Ideal value, c, based on this work:
299779.058km/s <~ 1991 this work (1991 - 2022)
299792.458km/s <~ 1983 decreed / consensus value

So, as shown on chart above, the speed of light just needs to decrease a little.
The meter definition and time reference (cesium atoms? or whatever) one or the other or both can be  adjusted to agree with the analysis. (Simultaneous Bohr/Schrรถdinger atom solution, lowest energy, single electron hydrogen - using 0˚K hydrogen as a reference).

This can be extended into mass definitions, however, after a little homework...

Note:  13,400 m/s is how much the speed of light has to be reduced to be the ideal theoretical value.  This is less than 25% 0f the 90,000 m/s differene between the speed of light in a vacuum and in air due to the index of refraction.  Therefore, the correction is 25% of what one would do to correct for air vs. vacuum.

Just saying.

Constants by decree works if there is solid logic behind the decree, practical logic.  More thinking required to determine if this work would be a better target for the decree...
