摘要
We will describe the current status of our determination of the Newtonian gravitational constant (G). Since our 1998, determination of G [1] we have been making a measurement of G with our torsion balance operating in a dynamic mode [2]. This paper briefly reports on the uncertainty analysis of our most recent compensated measurement and on our experiences of measuring G with the dynamic method.
