In addition to Andreas's excellent answer, we should also mention the Tamagawa number conjecture of Bloch and Kato, which predicts the undetermined rational factor arising in Beilison's conjectural description of the $L$-value. The Bloch-Kato conjecture was later reformulated and generalized by Fontaine and Perrin-Riou to the case of motives with coefficients in an arbitrary number field. Here are some references :
