Reinterpretation of Classic Proton Charge Form Factor Measurements

In 1963, a proton radius of 0.805(11) 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 discovered that there was a sign error in the original analysis and tha...
