partikkelimassat
Partikkelimassat refers to the masses of elementary particles, the fundamental constituents of matter and force carriers in particle physics. These masses are intrinsic properties of the particles themselves and are not to be confused with the total mass of an object, which is a composite of many particle masses and their associated energies. The concept of mass in particle physics is deeply intertwined with the Standard Model and the mechanism by which particles acquire mass, known as the Higgs mechanism.
In the Standard Model, fundamental particles are categorized into fermions (quarks and leptons) and bosons (force
Bosons, which mediate the fundamental forces, are generally massless, such as the photon (electromagnetism) and the
