Default Kepler's 3rd revision3

K3 revision3

By popular demand I revised the calculation of Kepler's third law constant using only data I cannot accused of to have tampered with. The data (orbital period in earth years and semi major axis in AU) was sourced from https://www.princeton.edu/~willman/planetary with the comment that all orbital characteristics are specified with respect to the Solar system's barycenter and the J2000.0 ecliptic.

Ockham's razor.

I do not think so, as the table content is obvious and useless.

Deviations of simplified Kepler law
cause by its ignoring of influence of planet/Solar mass ratios
are comparable(Jupiter) or smaller then rounding errors.

Now imagine our Sun is not alone,
but is a twin binary star of the same masses
with circular orbits around common barycentre.

You will realize the simplified Kepler 3rd law
does not fit well the requirement of equality of
gravitation acceleration G.Ms/(2R)^2 , 2R = distance
and centripetal acceleration v^2/R = 4.pi^2.R

E.g. if the strar distance is 2 AU, so orbit radius is 1 AU,
the period is not 1 year, but 2 years.

Note the generalized 3rd kepler law
G.(M1+M2) = 4pi^2 . a^3/T^2 is valid for coordinate system with center
in object, not in barycenter.

By analysis of circular orbits with M1 = M2 = M,
it is
G.2M = 4pi^2 . D^3/T^2
or
G.M/4= 4pi^2 . R^3/T^2
