    Why heavier particles decay faster than lighter ones?

    Firstly welcome to the forums, and secondly... Could you explain where you got the information that heavy particles decay faster than lighter ones? Because I'd certainly like to see it...

    Can Photons Ever Acquire Mass Through Theoretical Processes?

    Actually...I believe the scientists who did the experiment were referring to speed between point A and point B...

    Can Photons Ever Acquire Mass Through Theoretical Processes?

    :D thankyou for that read jtbell it helps a great deal. and Mute ty for clarifying what I mean't in my original post. But I heard they was only able to freeze the photon to 36mph. Either way, it is a very interesting read and thankyou :)

    How Will the Universe Ultimately Meet Its End?

    setAI... I think he's probably curious as to how the universe will end in OUR dimension and our universe, not taking into consideration multiverses and parralel universes... As it's already been mentioned, there's quite a few numerous outcomes that can happen... 1. As harmony mentioned, the...

    Do massless particles always have momentum in the direction of travel?

    Well, it's a tricky question.. Usually, momentum WILL be in the direction of motion unless its an alternative force that is creating the motion while pushing it away aswell... ---> O< Have you tried taking a look at EMF papers?

    Can Gravitons Convey Information Faster Than Light?

    Well as Chinese has pointed out...gravitons wouldn't *instantaneously* pass on any information faster than light...if getting deep into the theory...Given that light travels at C *Usually* always (Unless passing through BEC as that experiment slowed it down to 36mph :O) nothing, according to...

    What is the significance of the equations in Lost (TV Show)?

    Quite interesting though ultimately quite pointless too... I see what looks like a(n)-r^2[5/7] which am afraid to say doesn't seem to make any sense...butt, the image is distorted so I could also be wrong in choosing them out... within the jarbled lot I also see what resembles some form...

    Can Photons Ever Acquire Mass Through Theoretical Processes?

    Thankyou for the clarification of the Frozen BEC.. It is often difficult to find reliable sources of information that are both accurate as well as efficient, when starting out and not really knowing what to look for. As for the light, I mean't mass as in if it <i>were</i> solid. Not whether...

    Can Photons Ever Acquire Mass Through Theoretical Processes?

    I wasn't saying they were related, It was an example as I heard that the BEC could be frozen on a physics website I recently visited, if I can find the link I'll gladly post...but to continue, "and a sign that it could have mass" I didn't say it could...perhaps I should have reprased it all...

    Can Photons Ever Acquire Mass Through Theoretical Processes?

    Well we all know that photons have (or supposedly have) zero mass... But it is radiation...thus isn't it possible to freeze? such as like with the Bose-einstein condensate... so is it at ALL possible that a photon could ever have a mass, and if so...what could be its advantages
