  2. List of particles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_particles

    A luxon travels as fast as light in vacuum and has no rest mass. A tachyon is a hypothetical particle that travels faster than the speed of light so they would paradoxically experience time in reverse (due to inversion of the theory of relativity) and would violate the known laws of causality. A tachyon has an imaginary rest mass.

  3. Massless particle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massless_particle

    The graviton is a hypothetical tensor boson proposed to be the carrier of gravitational force in some quantum theories of gravity, but no such theory has been successfully incorporated into the Standard Model, so the Standard Model neither predicts any such particle nor requires it, and no gravitational quantum particle has been indicated by experiment.

  4. Simbang Gabi - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simbang_Gabi

    Pope Sixtus V ordered that Mass must be heard before sunrise since it was the harvest season, [9] and farmers needed to be in the fields right after the liturgy. [3] Simbang Gabi is also celebrated in malls, usually in open spaces. The Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Manila discouraged the celebration of Mass in malls, except when a mall has its ...

  5. Low Mass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low_Mass

    Low Mass (Latin Missa Privata) [1] is a Catholic Mass celebrated by a priest without the assistance of sacred ministers (deacon and subdeacon). Before 1969 reforms, a sub-distinction was also made between the sung Mass (Missa in cantu), [2] when the celebrant still chants those parts which the rubrics require to be chanted, and the low Mass (Missa lecta) where the liturgy is spoken.

  6. Annihilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annihilation

    When a low-energy electron annihilates a low-energy positron (antielectron), the most probable result is the creation of two or more photons, since the only other final-state Standard Model particles that electrons and positrons carry enough mass–energy to produce are neutrinos, which are approximately 10,000 times less likely to produce, and ...

  7. Rogue planet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogue_planet

    The 16 young objects had a mass between 3 and 14 M J, confirming that they are indeed planetary-mass objects. [50] In October 2023 an even larger group of 540 planetary-mass object candidates was discovered in the Trapezium Cluster and inner Orion Nebula with JWST. The objects have a mass between 13 and 0.6 M J. A surprising number of these ...

  8. Neutrino - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutrino

    A neutrino (/ nj uː ˈ t r iː n oʊ / new-TREE-noh; denoted by the Greek letter ν) is an elementary particle that interacts via the weak interaction and gravity. [2] [3] The neutrino is so named because it is electrically neutral and because its rest mass is so small that it was long thought to be zero.

  9. Quantization of the electromagnetic field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantization_of_the...

    The photon having non-zero linear momentum, one could imagine that it has a non-vanishing rest mass m 0, which is its mass at zero speed. However, we will now show that this is not the case: m 0 = 0. Since the photon propagates with the speed of light, special relativity is called for. The relativistic expressions for energy and momentum ...
