1. Yes photons do have mass.
2. Because they are real.

Photons spin. Not just about their own axis, but they will stack spins along the x, y, z axis as well dependent upon their energy level.

Stack spins? read on......
A stacked spin is simple, picture a particle rotating around its axis, spin 1, we will call it a, then lets put this particle in euclidean space x,y,z with the south pole at 0,0,0 now lets spin it around 0,0,0 on the x axis, spin 2, we will call it x-spin. rinse and repeat. You will not the radius grows in a steady 1 particle step per spin, now link it to planks constant. Keep up /sci/

Particle is unit of measurement, being something like sand form which is created by certain frequency oscillation in system of membranes that have some energy at frequency thus oscillate.

Question is what is mass.

Because if photon's doesn't have some resistance to "being created"? Lulz, you are funny guys.

How photon starts to exist?
So when I start lightbulb some electron begins to shrink with antielectron so it glows and stuff like that.

As we can see on this picture, everything in universe comes in perfect sinuses. Weight is irrelevant, tell us what unit are you asking please, when referring to matter. Stuff can have some "agitation" towards earth due to electromagnetism. So outside of earth magnetic field we don't perceive same ratio of mass to weight on scale.

>> No.9502134

>>9501617
of course they do. when a photon hits a planet or a strip of silicon, it delivers energy because it has both mass and velocity.

This theory will become accepted within the next 100 years: all Energy is based off of mass and velocity (or height in the case of potential energy). might be able to make a finer statement in 100 years but same concept

Photons effectively have zero mass. Basically they have a fluctuating mass switching between positive and negative faster than the rate of causality. A photon with for example "1" mass strikes an object, but before this strike can be registered the photon has fluctuated back to negative 1 mass and thus the strike evens out to zero.

>> No.9502175

So there is dark energy in it, that can be explained only if light... get... faster for a while around the ball, because it accelerates for distant observer because time goes faster there so it "bends" because of some form of breaking angle like in atmosphere, but with no shifting because speed haven't changed...

Because speed of light is distance which information reach one point to another point in space, per time of observer, always.

So if observer's time goes faster the speed of light is faster.

So cosmic ray's still are not fucking big bang!

Also there could be possibility, that to travel that what is black dot in middle, it would bend itself to go somewhere out from the gravitational optics.

There is no object sucking up light, it just bends and go in a way we don't observe it, and it goes diffracted, changing observer time frame, being scattered in the process.

"heaviness" makes synchronous clock ticking? are you sure about the way? Because there's been some "G's" involved in experiments I heard of.
"mass" makes matter stick together.
It's not bigger heat, but bigger time, because mass and gravity is what makes matter stick together, so some form of harmony element. We still talking about waves.

Because for sure, everything is in lattice having phonons, which relations can be described by wave. i.e. scalar number over cycle can describe what it is, but what makes really it is a distribution.

So there is different delta t that takes wave to propagate same space e.g. heat and stuff like that, and thus it's something "weird" we need to measure....

I could assume if we stick more particles together, their 'time' is different, just because for same thing to happen you need to travel greater distance by same speed. Which means everything is photons. And speed of it's vibration is just how much space it's looped troughs, or there is same kind of wave, passing trough multiple points. but in the end, we have something like, pure wave in stable speed...

>> No.9502180

>>9502175
Difficult point in this may be to understand what frequency is and even 10x18^-6 in repeats is repeat, and even something that does not repeats at all can be still wave that have frequencies that interchange at some difficult patterns, but there is still something that "oscillates".

In there is just photon photon scattering, and photons that comes in such different "shapes" it simple doesn't end up in your ballistic gel, but flies around it, and end up somewhere on the camera is being the ballistic gell. You get that?

"Double slit experiment just proves that photons are entangled and reflecting or absorbing bunch of it creates ripple in it wholeness where rest trying to chase it "bound parts" because chemistry kind of shit appears on that level too, because it's just a recursion of same possible principles(for noobs that can't explain whole)(like me)(there is itteration number in recursive loops).

Acceleration creates something similar to gravity, photons absorbed by slitter layer of double slit experiment are having change of "scalar" in same direction of one or two c... Thus creating space density in constant time different and creating miniature lens that creates a "interference" "disspersion pattern" simply by the fact there is underpresure of photon flux, by the fact some has been absorbed...

Faster something flows, that it's stopped, thus virtual viscosity of beam is fucked up... There is a empty place with underpressure created by strong shockwave of photon kickback that is getting far beyond the slit and disturbing flow of currents.

>The levitation lasted for more than an hour, as opposed to a few minutes; stability was achieved radially and vertically, as opposed to just vertically; and it used a temperature gradient rather than light or a magnetic field.
>“Magnetic levitation only works on magnetic particles, and optical levitation only works on objects that can be polarized by light, but with our first-of-its-kind method, we demonstrate a method to levitate generic objects,” said Chin.
>In the experiment, the bottom copper plate was kept at room temperature while a stainless steel cylinder filled with liquid nitrogen kept at negative 300 degrees Fahrenheit served as the top plate. The upward flow of heat from the warm to the cold plate kept the particles suspended indefinitely.
