COMMENTS

In the current theory of strong and electroweak interactions, this is not a mathematical constant but an experimental summary of (virtual) quark rests masses plus contributions from gluon (meson) and electroweak (photon, W-Z boson) exchange energies (in the scope of general relativity). [I've changed the last two digits to the current "best" estimates, 7,0->6,7] - R. J. Mathar, Aug 09 2007
