Abstract
This paper gives the values of the basic constants and conversion factors of physics and chemistry resulting from the 1986 least-squares adjustment of the fundamental physical constants as recently published by the CODATA Task Group on Fundamental Constants and as recommended for international use by CODATA. The new, 1986 CODATA set of recommended values replaces its predecessor published by the Task Group and recommended for international use by CODATA in 1973.

IntroductionThis article reports work carried out under the auspices of the Committee on Data for Science and Technology (CODATA) Task Group on Fundamental Constants
Because the value of G resulting from this experiment is correlated with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)-University of Virginia (UVa) value and both values are being included in the adjustment, we evaluated the correlation coefficient of the two results
The focus of this section is (i) comparison of the 2010 and 2006 recommended values of the constants and identification of those new results that have contributed most to the changes in the 2006 values; (ii) presentation of several conclusions that can be drawn from the 2010 recommended values and the input data on which they are based; and (iii) identification of new experimental and theoretical work that can advance our knowledge of the values of the constants
Summary
This article reports work carried out under the auspices of the Committee on Data for Science and Technology (CODATA) Task Group on Fundamental Constants.. This article reports work carried out under the auspices of the Committee on Data for Science and Technology (CODATA) Task Group on Fundamental Constants.1 It describes in detail the CODATA 2010 least-squares adjustment of the values of the constants, for which the closing date for new data was 31 December 2010. Important, it gives the 2010 self-consistent set of over 300 CODATA recommended values of the fundamental physical constants based on the 2010 adjustment. If the 1998 set is counted as the first of the new 4-year cycle, the 2010 set is the 4th of that cycle
