International Nautical League

The international nautical league is a standardized version of the nautical league used in maritime navigation. It is defined as exactly 3 international nautical miles, which equals 5,556 meters or about 3.45 miles. This standardization helps avoid confusion caused by variations in historical definitions of the league. While the nautical mile remains the primary unit in modern navigation, the international nautical league provides a consistent way to measure longer distances at sea when needed.

Classical Electron Radius

The classical electron radius is a theoretical length scale associated with the electron, derived from classical electromagnetism. It represents the size of a hypothetical sphere where the electron’s electrostatic energy equals its rest mass energy.

• 
  

  Its value is approximately 2.818 × 10⁻¹⁵ meters (about 2.8 femtometers).

  
  
• 
  

  Calculated using fundamental constants: the electron charge, mass, and the speed of light.

  
  
• 
  

  It is not the actual physical size of the electron (which is considered point-like in quantum mechanics), but a useful scale in classical physics.

  
  
• 
  

  Used in scattering theory and classical electron models.

  
  

Key facts:

• 
  

  Classical electron radius ≈ 2.818 × 10⁻¹⁵ m

  
  
• 
  

  Represents an electromagnetic length scale, not a physical size

  
  
• 
  

  Important in classical models of electron behavior

  
  

This radius helps bridge classical and quantum views of particle physics.
