The Newtonian gravitational constant G is being determined with relative uncertainty of 105 parts per million by means of a high-Q torsion pendulum and the time-of-swing method, in which the period of the pendulum is altered by the presence of two 6.25 kg stainless steel cylinders.To improve the experimental precision, the properties and the systematic errors of the torsion pendulum have been studied in detail.The experimental results show that the uncertainty of G due to the fiber nonlinearity would be less than 1×10-6, the ambient temperature fluctuation with one degree would introduce a considerable uncertainty about 165 ×10-6 in the torsion spring constant
Key words: gravitational constant G; precision measurement; torsion balance
