The dependence of physical quantities, such as the electric charge or electron mass, on the scale Λ is hidden, effectively swapped for the longer-distance scales at which the physical quantities are measured, and, as a result, all observable quantities end up being finite, instead, even for an infinite Λ. Gell-Mann and Low thus realized in these results that, while, infinitesimally, a tiny change in g is provided by the above RG equation given ψ ( g ), the self-similarity is expressed by the fact that ψ ( g ) depends explicitly only upon the parameter ( s ) of the theory, and not upon the scale μ. Consequently, the above renormalization group equation may be solved for ( G and thus ) g ( μ ).
