Quarks are imprisoned in hadrons, and have large binding and kinetic energies at all times. Ditto about gluons.
How can inertial mass of quarks inside hadrons be measured?
Also, how is it proven that gluons are massless? What effects would happen if gluons had rest mass, as much as up to a few MeV?
