Undergrad Data needed: Relative permittivity of air

Click For Summary
The discussion centers on the search for accurate values of the relative permittivity of air at specific conditions: 1.4 GHz frequency, 25ºC temperature, 1 atm pressure, and 50% humidity. The original poster expresses frustration with existing online resources, which provide insufficient accuracy and lack detailed information on temperature and frequency dependencies. They require data with a precision of 1e-5 for a research application and seek reliable references for citation. Participants suggest using Google for preliminary searches but acknowledge the difficulty in finding precise data. The need for a formula or reliable source for the specified conditions remains a key focus of the conversation.

Where can I found values of the relative permittivity of air at different temperatures, frequencies, pressure, humidity, etc. or its dependence?
I'm particularly interested in data around 1.4 GHz, 25ºC, 1 atm. 50% hum.

Thanks in advance.

Google is your friend. What have you found so far with your Google searches? Have you found numerous websites with information on this, but not one or two of the values that you need? What accuracy do you need the data to? What is the application?

In this case, Google is not my friend, or it is not enough. Indeed there are numerous websites where the data appears, but not with sufficient accuracy or without information on temperature, frequency, reliable reference, etc. For example, values like 1, 10006, 1000589, 10005364, 1000524, etc. are found.
Do a search for yourself and you will see what I say.
The application for which I need the data requires a precision of 1e-5 and at 25ºC, 1 atm, 50% hum, 1.4 GHz approximately, or some formula that allows obtaining it for those conditions and a reliable reference that can be cited in a paper.
Can anyone help, please?
 
Thread 'What is the pressure of trapped air inside this tube?'
As you can see from the picture, i have an uneven U-shaped tube, sealed at the short end. I fill the tube with water and i seal it. So the short side is filled with water and the long side ends up containg water and trapped air. Now the tube is sealed on both sides and i turn it in such a way that the traped air moves at the short side. Are my claims about pressure in senarios A & B correct? What is the pressure for all points in senario C? (My question is basically coming from watching...
