Chapter 355: The Logic of 'Stolen' Quality

"Stealing?"

"This word has profound implications. It can be understood from many perspectives!"

"Chinese culture is indeed profound and extensive!"

"However...can the process of particles gaining mass also be described as 'stealing'?"

Zhao Yi was contemplating the concept of 'stealing'. Unknowingly, his train of thought shifted towards the process of particles gaining mass, a mechanism he had been pondering for a while.

The simplest explanation related to the generation of mass in our current physical system is the Higgs mechanism.

The European Organization for Nuclear Research has announced the discovery of the Higgs particle. The existence of the Higgs particle has been confirmed and the Higgs mechanism has been accepted by the physics community; however, in reality, the Higgs mechanism is still unprovable.

In the Standard Model of particle physics, the Higgs mechanism allows elementary particles to gain mass.
