The radius of the electron re is < 10−15 m (Pauling 1964). The classical electron radius = 2.82 × 10−15 m (see reference: Classical electron radius) is obtained by equating the relativistic rest mass energy of an electron (mass × square of velocity of light) with the electrostatic potential energy of a sphere carrying one electron charge and having radius = electron radius. Another approach (see reference: Determining the electron structure), which appears more realistic, takes the measured radius of proton = 1.15 × 10−15 m, uses the ratio of proton mass/electron mass = 1836, and divides the proton radius by 18363=12.24 to get the electron radius = 9.1 × 10−17 m because mass increases with cube of radius as Mass=Density ×Volume=Density×43πre3

where G is the pre-exponential factor given by , V is the volume of the particle, re is the Thomson scattering length equal to the classical electron radius (2.818 × 10−15 m), and RG is the radius of gyration of a particle relative to its center of gravity. The quantity is the contrast electron density or relative scattering length density of the particles with respect to the medium. A lnI vs q2 plot, i.e., the Guinier plot, can be obtained by taking the logarithm of Eq. (3), which is well-known used in small-angle scattering for determining RG.
