Abstract:
I will discuss the determination of the proton charge radius by different means including spectroscopy of hydrogen and deuterium, spectroscopy of muonic hydrogen and elastic electron-proton scattering. The most accurate result is from the measurement of the Lamb shift in muonic hydrogen and it is in contradiction with the results from ordinary hydrogen and scattering. I will review the situation and discuss the accuracy and reliability of the involved theory and experiment.
