Convert Electron radius (classical) to fathom (US survey)
Please provide values below to convert Electron radius (classical) [r_e] to fathom (US survey) [fath (US)], or Convert fathom (US survey) to Electron radius (classical).
1 r_e = 1.5409e-15 fath (US). To convert Electron radius (classical) to fathom (US survey), multiply the value by 1.5409e-15; to go the other way, divide by it (1 fath (US) = 6.4899e+14 r_e). Both units measure length and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 r_e = 1.5409e-15 fath (US)

Electron Radius (Classical)
The classical electron radius is a quantity with the dimension of length, approximately 2.82 x 10⁻¹⁵ meters.
History/Origin
The classical electron radius is a concept from classical physics that attempts to model the electron as a spherical shell of charge. It is not considered the actual size of an electron.
Current Use
The classical electron radius appears in the Thomson scattering cross-section and is a useful length scale in atomic and high-energy physics.
Fathom (Us Survey)
A U.S. survey fathom is a unit of length equal to 6 U.S. survey feet.
History/Origin
The U.S. survey fathom is based on the U.S. survey foot, which was slightly different from the international foot. The use of survey units was officially phased out in 2022.
Current Use
The U.S. survey fathom was used in surveying in the United States.
