| dc.description | In this note we show that the latest determinations of the residual Mercury's perihelion advance, obtained by accounting for almost all known Newtonian and post-Newtonian orbital effects, yields only very broad constraints on the cosmological constant. Indeed, from δ\dotω=-0.0036 + - 0.0050 arcseconds per century one gets -2 10^-34 km^-2 < Lambda < 4 10^-35 km^-2. The currently accepted value for Lambda, obtained from many independent cosmological and large-scale measurements, amounts to almost 10^-46 km^-2. | |
