Increase in weight if an object is illuminated
Are there experiments which show that the weight of a body, with initial mass between 1 g and 1 kg, really increases if illuminated for a certain time?
Photons have energy E = hf but no mass. If the weight of a body gets bigger after being radiated with light it means that energy indeed converts to mass.
