But John Mallinckrodt's construction does bring up an added stipulation
that should be made explicit, but that has so far been only implicit:
"Without introducing adjustable constants, i. e., using only constants
of the nonadjustable kind such as Pi, G, g, Etc."
If we can introduce adjustable parameters, I can do it in any frame with
just one: M+m itself.
Note to J. M. -- However, if you do find a way to evaluate your
constants in a practical way, I think the binary star people will be
very much interested in your methods. To my knowledge, they have not
yet been able to get separate values for masses of binary components.
But I'm not up on their techniques beyond Newton's version of Kepler's
law III.
