Abstract
A review is given of the latest adjustment of the values of the fundamental constants. The new values are recommended by the Committee on Data for Science and Technology (CODATA) for international use. Most of the fundamental constants are obtained by the comparison of the results of critical experimental results and the corresponding theoretical expressions based on quantum electrodynamics (QED). An important case is the Rydberg constant which is determined primarily by precise frequency measurements in hydrogen and deuterium.Citation
