Hey guys, I was doing some research and I am confused since I can't seem to get a straight answer.
I wanted to know what the diameters/radii of protons and electrons are. But no place I go to agrees on the numbers. The general trend for protons is somewhere around 10^-15, but I've seen estimates go to 10^-13 to 10^-18. I've also seen estimates where the electron radius is bigger than the proton radius, so it's very confusing.
Are there any well accepted values for these?
