Annotation
The simple and beautiful formula connecting major dimensionless constants is
found: fine structure constant (α), number pi (π) and gold ratio (Φ),
following from numbers Fibonacci.
The formula is presented as:

On the basis of this formula the new calculated value of fine structure
constant (α) is received:
α = 1/137,036009823754683675307501201348…
The received results specify the geometrical status of fine structure
constant, and also that all dimensionless parameters, which characterize the
microworld and universe, are calculable in principle.
1. Geometrical status of fine structure constant
The researches of fundamental physical constants have shown, that known on
today fundamental physical constants are very rigidly connected among themselves,
they are interdependent [1]. It derives hope that any opportunity at last will
appear though to be risen to the decision with conundium involving on a
mysterious number called alpha, that does not give rest of physicist. The bases
have appeared to consider, that the major physical constant - fine structure
constant (α), also can be connected to other constants. If such connection
really exists, with the account of dimensionality of fine structure constant (α),
most simple ratio this constant should be connected not with dimensional, and to
dimensionless constants. It especially is of interest, as the values of some
dimensionless constants are determined with very high accuracy.
In physics we deal with two classes of constants - with physical constants
and with geometrical constants. I am inclined to consider that of fine structure
constant (α) not there is a physical constant, and is a geometrical
constant. Therefore is of interest to find out what there is a connection at
this constant with other geometrical constants. On my belief known connection of
fine structure constant (α) with some physical constants (Planck constant,
charge, speed of light) is secondary display of deeper interrelation of physics
and geometry. The sources of such connection and role in it of mathematical
constants by a modern science are not opened yet. On my sight, all dimensionless
constants are very rigidly connected among themselves inside own family of
dimensionless constants, and their connection with dimensional by fundamental
physical constants is only consequence, the other words secondary display of
general interrelation of fundamental constants. Here pertinently to refer to
opinion А.Poincare that physics and geometry are completing each other.
According to A.Poincare, on experience we always notice certain “sum” of
physics and geometry [2]. If it so, similar “sum” of physics and geometry
should be shown on an example of united constant basis as set of physical and
geometrical constants. I consider, that as united constant basis for the
description of the laws of a nature it is enough only of three physical and two
geometrical constants. I managed to establish, that among family of fundamental
physical constants there are only five primary superconstants, from which there
are all other constants [1]. In five-constant ontological basis - three
superconstants are dimensional, and two - dimensionless [1]. Three dimensional
ontological superconstants are physical, and two dimensionless ontological
superconstants - geometrical. Five primary superconstants have appeared to be
quite enough, that on their basis to receive by calculation set of other
fundamental constants [1]. Now becomes clear, that hundreds constants in modern
physics have unreasonably the fundamental status, as they are not primary
constants. Here pertinently to recollect Ockham’s rule, according to which it
is not necessary needlessly to increase number of essences, and also Fresnel’s
opinion that “ the nature is inclined to management by much with the help
small ” [3].
On my opinion, on a role of one of geometrical superconstants claims of fine
structure constant (α) [1]. I also consider, that the constants a and
рi have primary ontological status. From these reasons very important is
the finding - out of a role and place of fine structure constant (α) in
family of dimensionless constants.
2. Conection of three major dimensionless constants
Interesting interrelation revealed between three major dimensionless
constants is shown below: fine structure constant (α), number pi (π)
and gold ratio (Φ). I bring this simple and beautiful formula. The found
formula is presented as:

Where: Φ = Phi = 1,6180339 …
With use of number φ = phi = 0,6180339 … The formula is presented as:

As α and π have appeared connected with the gold ratio Φ,
following from numbers Fibonacci, specifies participation of fine structure
constant (α), and number pi (π) to the law of harmony in a nature. If
the nature has not passed by this interrelation, two dimensionless constants
should be quite enough for geometrical constant basis of the universe. For the
scientists also there should be quite enough two dimensionless constants, that
on their basis, with the help of calculation to receive other dimensionless
constants.
3. New calculated value of fine structure constant ( α)
We shall take advantage of these formulas for calculation of exact value of
fine structure constant.
The value of number pi (π) today is known with the very large accuracy
and already is calculated up to 206 158 430 000 signs (!) [4]:
Pi = π = 3,1415926535897932384626433832795 … (Exact).
The value of gold ratio (Φ) also is known with the very large accuracy
and already is calculated up to 1 500 000 000 signs (!) [4]:
Phi = Φ = 1,61803398874989484820458683436564 … (Exact),
phi = φ = 0,61803398874989484820458683436564 … (Exact).
The so exact values of numbers π , Φ and φ allow, on the basis
of the above mentioned formulas, to calculate value of fine structure constant (α).
Value of number “alpha”, received by calculation below is given, where, for
an example, 33 signs of this constant are shown:
Alpha = α = 0,00729735199737736169573530153098411…
The reciprocal value of fine structure constant (α -1)
accordingly is equal:
(Alpha)–1 = α–1
= 137,036009823754683675307501201348…
When taking into account above-stated, there was all with conundium involving
on a mysterious number called alpha because of that was not taken into account
geometrical essence of this constant. In result, not up to the end the found out
connection of physics and geometry has caused intricate problem of fine
structure constant, which unsuccessfully tried to solve the outstanding
scientists of the last century. And now this problem enters into 10 major
problems of physics, which have received the name “ problems of millenium ”
[5, 6].
The new geometrical status of fine structure constant (б) will allow in
a root to change ideas about this constant and will take off from it a veil of
mystery. When accepting geometrical essence of fine structure constant, it will
mean, that all dimensionless parameters, which characterize the microworld and
universe, are calculable in principle. Besides finally will clear up in what the
connection of physics and geometry in the various phenomena of the material
world consists and how it is shown and how this connection is submitted in
constant bases of the physical theories. You see till now there are without the
answer questions: what geometry has been applied by the nature and what is
ontological basis of a matter?
I consider, that besides for the above mentioned formulas there are
mathematical equations for exact and independent calculation of value of fine
structure constant (α), as it has a place separately for number pi (π)
and separately for a gold ratio (Φ). Their - these independent mathematical
equations, it is necessary to search!
Conclusions

constants is found: fine structure constant α, number π and gold ratio
Φ.
2. The formula has allowed to receive new exact value of fine structure
constant.
3. The received results confirm the geometrical status of fine structure
constant.
4. The geometrical status of fine structure constant specifies that all
dimensionless parameters, which characterize the microworld and universe, are
calculable in principle.
5. The geometrical status of fine structure constant specifies that there are
mathematical equations for exact and independent calculation of value of fine
structure constant (α), as for number pi (π) and for a gold ratio (Φ).
6. Fine structure constant and number pi are ontological superconstants, from
which originate all dimensionless physical constants.
7. As a and р proved to be connected with the gold ratio Φ
specifies participation of fine structure constant (α), and number pi (π)
to the law of harmony in a nature.
8. The absence of the geometrical theory with application of two constants -
number pi and fine structure constant specifies that geometry, which has applied
nature, remains outside of a field of sight of the scientists.
