- Higgs mechanism: periodically interactions with the Higgs field
According to Leonard Susskind, i.e. the electron has periodically interactions with the Higgs field condensate, that change the electron alternately to be right-handed an left-handed. At 44:20 in the video he says, that, according to the Dirac theory, the mass of the electron is proportional to the frequency, at which it flips from left-handed to right-handed.
What is, in the electron's rest frame, the proportionality factor between the mass of the electron and this frequency?
