Default Radiation Resistance

I am not trolling.

What I want to know is the radiation resistance, referred to the base,
of a short vertical wire above a perfect ground, the current in the
wire being assumed uniformly distributed.

The radiation resistance at the base is in the form of -

C * Square( Length / Lambda )

where Length is the physical length or height of the wire and Lambda
is the free-space wavelength.

What is the value of the constant C ?

Thank you.
