Consider two circles C1:x2+y2=25{C}_{1}:{x}^{2}+{y}^{2}=25C1​:x2+y2=25 and C2:(x−α)2+y2=16{C}_{2}:(x-\alpha {)}^{2}+{y}^{2}=16C2​:(x−α)2+y2=16, where α∈(5,9)\alpha \in (5,9)α∈(5,9). Let the angle between the two radii (one to each circle) drawn from one of the intersection points of C1{C}_{1}C1​and C2{C}_{2}C2​ be sin−1(638){\mathrm{sin}}^{-1}(\frac{\sqrt{63}}{8})sin−1(863​​). If the length of common chord of C1{C}_{1}C1​ and C2{C}_{2}C2​ is β\betaβ, then the value of (αβ)2(\alpha \beta {)}^{2}(αβ)2 equals _________.
