Oct 19, 2019 · Its intrinsic properties include its EM charge, which we still call the elementary charge. Originally the name electron comes from electric ion, and it was discovered around the …

Sep 24, 2020 · Charge is, as far as we know, an unchangeable and intrinsic property of certain elementary particles such as the electron and the quark, (which is a constituent of protons and …

Jul 17, 2021 · For example, for an electron, how is this charge related to the tabulated elementary charge? Is elementary charge related to bare charge or effective charge? Neither makes …

I would appreciate a nice, succinct explanation as to how the charge of the electron was measured to about 10 significant digits or more. All of the commonly used lab measuring …

Apr 11, 2022 · We observe that the proton and electron have opposite charges of equal magnitude. We construct models that reproduce this observation and others. Thus, any …

Nov 25, 2022 · There is an elementary electric charge that is equal to the electron charge. Beside this electric charge, the electron has also a constant value of its magnetic moment. Is there an …

Jul 7, 2019 · The EM charge of the electron is defined as -1e, and the spin as 1/2. Electrons have an electric charge of −1.602×10^−19 coulombs,[66] which is used as a standard unit of charge …

Believe you me, people have devoted a lot of time to coming up with composite models of the electron, without much to show for it. For example, see the preon. High energy scattering …

Sep 28, 2023 · And since the electron is the simplest stable charged particle, the "elementary charge" is defined in terms of the electron charge. It would have been more convenient if the …

So in order to make the charge of the proton slightly different from the electron, you can't modify parameters in the standard model, you need to add a heck of a lot of unobserved nearly …
