In terms of the other constants known at the time, α = e²/(4πε_0)ħc, where:
e is the electron’s charge,
ε_0 is the electromagnetic constant for the permittivity of free space,
ħ is Planck’s constant,
and c is the speed of light.
Unlike these other constants, which have units associated with them, α is a truly dimensionless constant

the laws of nature themselves,
the fundamental constants governing reality,
and the initial conditions that our Universe was born with.
