Currently gravitational constant G is defined up to 5 characters, that is 2 or 3 orders of magnitude less than the accuracy of other fundamental physical constants – the speed c of light in vacuum and Planck’s constant h. However, in the Earth conditions the possibility of increasing the accuracy of defining G experimentally has reached its technical limit, which requires the search of new fundamental approaches. For this purpose, the original approach is suggested and the system of calculated dependences resulted from fundamental physical constants c, G, h, as well as from Planck’s values of length lp, time tp and mass mp, is obtained allowing to refine the presently known value of the gravitational constant G by 3 orders. At this, the necessity of experimental determination of G is eliminated, it is only enough to define c and h, and the increase in their accuracy will automatically lead to the increase in the accuracy of refining G value. On this basis, the frequency of the gravitational field is singled out, which made it possible to obtain its other wave parameters and solve the problem of integrating the gravitational and electromagnetic fields at the strict physical and mathematical level.

Breit and Wheeler suggested that it should be possible to turn light into matter by smashing together only two particles of light (photons), to create an electron and a positron – The simplest method of turning light into matter ever predicted.
