Dea Robin,
I ran the numbers, and the radius comes out even larger than the
"Classical Electron Radius". Here I wrote up my work in Latex so it's easy
to read:
https://spaz.org/~magi/appendix/electron-latex.html
I got an electron radius of:
r = 3.863395 x 10^-13 meters
Whereas the CODAT

Hi Sean,
If you multiply your value by the fine structure constant, you get the
classical electron radius. If you divide by the
fine structure constant, you get the Bohr radius. This has to "mean" something.

Hi,
BTW I wonder if relativistic mass increase should be taken into account, if
it's spinning at the speed of light (or
close to it), and if the fine structure constant is related to that?

Hello,
Are you suggesting that long ago, in the time of Classical Physics,
someone performed the same simple algebraic calculation I just did, and
looked with consternation upon the result? "Hmm, you guys, this number
seems to be off. Let's multiply it by a correction factor. We'll call it

Hi Sean,
Frankly I'm not sure what it means myself, but it can't be a coincidence, and
is likely a clue to the nature of
space-time, or at least the nature of the electron. "mean something" was both
meant to be taken literally
