Author(s): UVS Seshavatharam and S Lakshminarayana
Abstract: In this paper, we make an attempt to estimate the famous Avogadro number with programming logics written in Python associated with advanced nuclear binding energy formulae. Average rest mass of nucleon, nuclear binding energy per nucleon and electron rest mass seem to play a vital role in estimating the unified atomic mass unit and Avogadro number. Interesting point to be noted is that, Avogadro number seems to be the inverse of the Unified atomic mass unit. With further study, it seems possible to estimate the unified atomic mass unit and Avogadro number accurately. Our interesting observation is that, short range strong nuclear force seems to have a vital role in deciding the accuracy of Avogadro number. For that purpose one may consider AI techniques along with newly observed atomic nuclides and their nuclear binding energies. For Z=6 to 118 and Alow=2Z and Aupper=3.5Z, estimated average value of Avogadro number is Considering the saturation of nuclear binding energy, at Z=26, At academic level, our proposal can be given a chance as a case study.It is planned to develop a web application for this purpose.
