Abstract:
 The discrepancy between measurements of the proton charge radius using atomic hydrogen, compared to muonic hydrogen, has been called the "proton radius puzzle". In particular, despite many decades of work, precision spectroscopy of atomic h ydrogen yields a number of discrepant results for the proton radius. The Lamb shift between the 2s and 2p states in atomic hydrogen can shed light on this puzzle, since it directly yields the proton radius without involving the Rydberg constant.

I will in troduce the proton radius puzzle, discuss our Lamb shift measurement (2019), and present updates on a new experiment aimed at getting a coherent picture of proton radius measurements.
