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.
Link
A link, specifically Gunter's link, is a unit of length equal to 7.92 inches, or 1/100 of a chain.
History/Origin
The link is part of Gunter's chain, a surveying tool invented by Edmund Gunter in the 17th century.
Current Use
The link is an obsolete unit of measurement, but may be found in old land surveys.
