I was hoping someone could point me in the direction of the best way to calculate the rest energy of a proton. I am a complete noob with the standard model, so please be gentle. My goal is to compare a calculation of the energy which accounts for the quark structure of the proton versus E=mc^2. It is important to me to take into account the QED aspects of this problem, even if they are of a couple orders of magnitude less important.
Thanks,
Patrick
