The PRad experiment has credibly demonstrated the advantages of the calorimetric method in e-p scattering experiments to measure the proton root-mean-square (RMS) charge radius with high accuracy. The PRad result, within its experimental…

In 1963, a proton radius of $0.805(11)~\mathrm{fm}$ was extracted from electron scattering data and this classic value has been used in the standard dipole parameterization of the form factor. In trying to reproduce this classic result, we…

The proton charge-radius determinations from the electromagnetic form-factor measurements in electron-proton scattering require an extrapolation to zero momentum transfer ($Q^2=0$) which is prone to model-dependent assumptions. We show that…
