this analytic expression for the mass of the photon comes from the
self-field theory as applied to the hydrogen atom. It shows the
internal workings of the atom to be a collision-based physics.

we all know not to trust any graduates from those schools.

Not that the rest mass of a photon will be much in any
event; the maximum value I can come up with is about
1.1 * 10^-35 kg (400 nm), and that's assuming Newtonian concepts.
This can also be represented as 6.2 eV. (The actual energy of
a 400nm photon would be half that.)

http://arxiv.org/abs/astro-ph/0310595

suggests an upper bound at the far lower mass of 10^-35 eV, though
I don't know what wavelength they're assuming.

The question was answered already. The photon is massless.

How do you choose which words to misspell, catenate and split? What
decides where you will abandon English grammar and where you will keep
it intact? As this particular post very effectively demonstrates,
it's all quite artificial.

Not quite that simple. First, in Newtonian mathematics
E = 1/2 m v^2 and p = mv; therefore E = 1/2 p v
and p = 2E / v.

Second, v != c in Newtonian theory, although if one measures
from a point motionless to the source one gets either c
or c - w, depending on whether one assumes c relative
to the source, or one assumes c relative to a rigid aether
(where w is the velocity of the source relative thereto).

Of course all experiments to date tend to support
the notion that p = E/c (which can be derived from
the formula E^2 = m^2c^4 + p^2c^2 with m=0), and
that a photon's speed is measured to be c no matter
what the motion of source and observer is.

Third, Hexenmeister hasn't a clue anyway. :-) The
round-trip time of a light pulse from here to the moon
is about 2.6 seconds, and is measured on a fairly routine
basis. Such measurements allow for precise determination
of the moon's motion.

(The data is available though I'd have to find it again.
I do know it's out there since I copied it at one point;
the data clearly shows the Earth's rotation and to a
lesser extent the Moon's changing distance between perigee
and apogee. I know there's an observatory in France that
took such measurements, and there are a few here in
the US as well.)

Also, as a very simple illustration, if one takes the
formula

x = r * cos(theta)
y = r * sin(theta)

and runs theta from 0 to 2*pi, the point (x,y) will travel
through a distance 2 * pi * r but the endpoints at theta=0
and theta=2*pi are coincident and therefore 0 units apart.

Thank you
now
i don't get into the question about speed of light
relevant to the mass of photon problem

2

the formula :

E^2 = m^2c^4 + p^2c^2

does not apply to the photon !!!!
to understand it is the difference between a thinking physicist
and a mathematician that thinks he is a physicist!!

that formula is relevant only in a mixture case of particles
plus photons

for the photon it is only

E=mc^2 (which is the original formula of Einstein
so if
p=mc than

m=p/c
just as simple as that for the photon
(and of course there are many photons

ps

how is the spelling now ?? (:-)

... ahahahaha... Eric, at least you must give unconditional
credit to Yehi for him having labeled your as the "Jower".
Do you know what that means in Polska Yiddish?... ahahaha...

Listen, Jower, one day you'll make a fine physics teacher, but
the current social environment will not allow your above used
type of instruction. OTHO the situation may revert and be again
like it was when Prof. Fraunfelder used to lecture us:

"Anyone who does not get it right, right now... must line up in
front of the blackboard and I personally will stick a propeller in
your asshole and let you fly out of this august institution"...

Heidi, the only girl in class stared at him with saucer sized eyes,
in horror. Slowy, Fraunfelder walked up to her and yelled into her
face: "What are you looking at like this for !? I ain't fucking you, am I?"
Heidi cried and the terror went on..... ahahahaha...

A few days later Fraunfelder entered, smilingly waving a pink
letter of reprimand in front of us, looking at Heidi: "So, your
useless stud complained to the Admin on your behalf. You,
Miss Henning, are alright, but if I catch that Beau of yours I
will stick a propeller in his asshole also"...

Then very slowly & with deliberation Fraunfelder tore & shredded
his pink reprimand and threw the shreds in her face and said:
"Go to the Dean and his Admin goons and tell'em to come down
here so that I can stick propellers into the assholes too!....
Don't you little fools understand that I am educating you?"....

Jower, doesn't that feel like Balsam on your cold Alaskan soul?
Thanks for the laughs, guys.... ahahahaha....

Nice try, but for a photon m = 0 and p = E/c.
The latter is readily verified by Compton scattering.
The former is a little more difficult; the best I can do
there is note that diffraction gratings work.

Yes, there is a connection! Briefly, a diffraction
grating is wavelength-dependent; in Newtonian theory,
the movement of the light source will not affect the
observed wavelength of the light. Since gratings are
routinely used to determine velocity (and observe
line shifts in the Frauenhofer lines), it's clear
Newton isn't at play here.

It is the proper mass (aka "rest mass") that has the value of zero. The
inertial mass (aka "relativistic mass") which has the value of m = p/v by
definition. Anything else and you're simply discussing semantics.

Eric here's an experiment for you:

SCIENTIFIC METHOD: Theory compared with experimental observation

AIM: What is the mass of the photon given that QFT's answer is ZERO;
while SFT's answer is AN ANALYTIC EXPRESSION (actually SFT has two
analytic expressions, probably more)


RESULTS??
http://www.unifiedphysics.com/Two%20Analytic%20Estimates%20of%20the%20Mass%20of%20the%20Photon.pdf

What I want you to do is to calculate the relative error of teh two
mathematics SFT and QFT.

'''Y,Porat wouild prefer relativistic mass????????!!!!!'''

i am the last one on earth to prefere relativistic mass

my innovation idea is that
THERE IS JUST ONE KIND OF MASS:
REST MASS!!
it can be in motion but still the same rest mass (in motion)
and rest mass in motion is energy !!
no mass --no real physics !!

(hey!! how could you come to your stragne' quoting' of me??

I can't see that relativistic mass is out of fashion. In fact my GR textbook
by Schutz uses it. There is a list of people that use the concept on the
internet from univeresities to national labs. Ask yourselfd this question -
If a person teaches the concept of rel-mass then wouldn't it seem strange if
he himself never used it?

For a list of textbooks, universitiess and national labs that use it please
see
http://www.geocities.com/physics_world/relativistic_mass.htm

Notice especially this

Cern - The Cyclotron

"The real limiting factor is the basic design - all particles must orbit at
the same frequency, whatever their speed. As particles approach the speed of
light, however, they behave as if their mass is increasing. Accelerating
them becomes more difficult and they start to lag behind the oscillating
electric field. As cyclotrons approached 20 MeV they began to reach their
limits and a new design had to be produced."

Notice that it simply says "mass" and *not* "relativistic mass". Some people
claim that this does not exist today.

h/cc = Et/cc = mt

That's not mass, retard. The mass, anyhow, applies to the matter that
the fotòn leaves off.

One of the more interesting aspects -- which Dumbledore
aka Androcles aka Hexenmeister aka Whatever The Hell He
Is This Week doesn't appear to be able to get around in
a nice fashion -- is that the specifications of the Large
Hadron Collider require near-c for the proton, since the
beam frequency is 11.245 kHz around a just-shy-of-27
km circumference, with an energy (7 TeV) that, were
this a Newtonian universe, have them going more than
120x lightspeed. Admittedly, there is the problem of
brehmsstrahlung, but I doubt it's major.

Both are concepts anyway. One can measure mass by using
a pan scale, but that's not a direct measurement of mass;
it's more a counterbalancing of two torques caused by two
masses in a uniform (within a few millions or billionths of
a percent, anyway) gravitational field [*]. In a weightless
environment, one might be able to use magnetic fields
if both masses are known to be ferromagnetic, or just
spin the entire space station and carefully position the
scale so that its pivot point is directly underneath the
spindle (so that one approximate the uniform centripetal
acceleration again).

One can measure weight by using Hooke's law and careful
calibration.

Ideally, we'd actually *count* Avogadro's Number
(6.022 * 10^23) and define that as 12 grams of carbon.
At 1 femtosecond an atom it would only take just over 19
years. :-) We might cheat a bit by counting only
5.01833 * 10^22 atoms, and get 1 gram of carbon; that would
only take 1.59 years or so -- assuming Maxwell's Demon is
willing to work for us for that long.

And of course an accelerator has to take into account
the increase in relativistic mass as the proton increases
speed. Otherwise, the beam goes out of sync. Presumably,
the LHC developers know what they're doing (I don't, but
then I don't claim to be a particle physicist :-) ).

The correct and exact answer if hf/c^2 the mass depends on the frequency.

You can weigh it by using a light beam trapped betwen mirrors, weigh before
and after inserting the light.

You could use a semi - silvered mirror facing a normal mirror put in a
microbalance in darkness and then put a beam from a laser through the half
silvered part.

The mass will increase by nhf/c^2 where in the the average number of trapped
photons.

an experiment for you all:

SCIENTIFIC METHOD: Theory compared with experimental observation


AIM: What is the mass of the photon given that QFT's answer is ZERO;
while SFT's answer is AN ANALYTIC EXPRESSION (actually SFT has two
analytic expressions, probably more)


RESULTS??

What I want you to do is to calculate the relative error of the two
mathematics SFT and QFT.

m_jamma "=" 'h'v_e/4ccc
= Etv_e/4ccc2pi
= mtv_e/4c2pi
= ms_e/4c2pi
-> You are a dumb liar.

The "vel" would need to be acceleration; even then, the last c is a
fake rate as it'd need to apply to a boost and not be there for the
sake of celerity, or wavely propagation.

retard
you have to multiply it by

1.0000/time unit
i thought it is obvius even to a retard like you
i was meaning the
NUMERIC FIGURE!!

got it parrot ??

see my thread:

'The mass of the photon defined theoretically
by Y.Porat'
from a few years ago
not goos spelling there
but good physics
i told you parrot
that generally you see some trees
but you dont see the forest

As you'v no time unit, you'v no smallest mass.

--------------------
the time unit is just formally to get even with the dimesion analysis
numerically in the MKS system it is

h/c^2
and it fits nicely to the experiments
thought those experiments are
not subtle enough as it is now
(the experimental tools as now
ar enot acuarate enough)
and even so
it is close enough to the experimental results

so please calculate the value of
h/c^2 in mks
and see what you get ..............!!!

and i have even a physical explanation to it:

h is indivisible !!!
it can be only in whole units
and 1.000xh is the smallest
the c^2
is just to get even withthe dimensions of mass

still the mass of the matter, not of the fotòns--liht is by definition
a happening, not a thing
