Status of the proton radius puzzle

Research output: Contribution to conferencePaperpeer-review

Abstract

This talk reviews the status of the proton radius puzzle, i.e., the discrepancy between inferred values for the proton charge radius. The focus is on a discussion of the uncertainties in extrapolations of electron scattering data, and of the uncertainties due to proton structure corrections in the muonic hydrogen bound state.
