The Concept of Mass 论文

摘要

Mass is one of the most fundamental concepts of physics. Understanding and calculating the masses of the elementary particles is the central problem of modern physics, and is intimately connected with other fundamental problems such as the origin of CP violation, the mystery of the energy scales that determine the properties of the weak and gravitational interactions, the compositeness of particles, supersymmetry theory and the properties of the not-yet-discovered Higgs bosons.
