Measure of the Gravitational constant
• 1784 Coulomb reports on his experiments on the torsion pendulum
• 1785 Coulomb reports on the elctrostatic force between two charges law determined using a pendulum
• 1798 Cavendisch inspired by the work of Coulomb for the charges measures G with a torsion pendulum.
• 1922 Eotovos experiment on the equivalence of the inertial and gravitational mass
• 1982 Luther and Towler measure of G (improved data analysis)
• 2000 Gundlash and Mekowitz measure of G (improved experiment)

Conclusion
• The measure of the G is still based on method of torsion balance
• The more recent methods are only smart improvements of the original one.
• They rely upon the use of the symmetries of the apparatus and synchronous detection.
