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.


Caliber

Caliber is a unit of length used to describe the internal diameter of a firearm barrel, typically expressed in hundredths or thousandths of an inch.

History/Origin

The term "caliber" has been used for centuries to describe the size of cannons and firearms.

Current Use

Caliber is the standard unit for designating the bore of firearms in many countries, including the United States.
