The basis of the method used to perform this extraction is the QCD-based SOC-picture for inelastic diffraction in high-energy hadron-hadron and lepton-hadron collisions proposed in a recent Letter. The obtained results for pion and kaon charge radii are compared with those determined in meson form factor measurements.8 pages, 4 figuresHigh Energy Physics - PhenomenologyInelastic diffraction and meson radiitext
