Electron Radius (Classical)
The classical electron radius is a quantity with the dimension of length, approximately 2.82 x 10⁻¹⁵ meters.
History/Origin
The classical electron radius is a concept from classical physics that attempts to model the electron as a spherical shell of charge. It is not considered the actual size of an electron.
Current Use
The classical electron radius appears in the Thomson scattering cross-section and is a useful length scale in atomic and high-energy physics.
Point
A point is a unit of typographical measurement. In the context of printing, it is approximately 1/72 of an inch.
History/Origin
The point system of typography was developed in the 18th century. It provides a standardized way to measure font sizes and leading.
Current Use
The point is the standard unit for measuring font sizes in both print and digital media.
