Disclaimer: This meme is wrong. >99% of mass comes from the binding energy of the composite particles, not the particles themselves, but I think it's still funny. (At least I hope so)


BitterGalileo

I was itching to point it out ,but you beat me to it.damn it.

I just read “hadrons” as “hardons”


ClenchTheHenchBench

Hey baby, wanna see my large hard-on collider 👀


AgentWowza

"Wait you need at least two hard-ons for a collision right?" *France and Switzerland eyeing each other*

New particle just discovered, the erect-ion

Actually… Why not? Would it be similar to how a quark gluon plasma doesn’t form hadrons?

Could you put this in like dumber terms for me? I wanna understand


Algorythmis

as far as i understand, massless quarks go too fast, they can't stick to each other


Buddy77777

Wait but doesn’t the Higgs mechanism following electroweak symmetry breaking only give mass to elementary bosons? Or am I wrong there.


Algorythmis

Aren't quarks elementary bosons?


Buddy77777

They are fermions.


Algorythmis

oh yeah mb i don't know then ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯

Glad you posted the disclaimer, haha

I read somewhere the strong interaction binding quarks is like 97% of the mass of normal matter


Select_Stupid_Host

Hey that's me


Higgs_Br0son

Thank you


Coammanderdata

Not entirely correct. The interaction with the Higgs field gives higher than the composition of quarks to QCD bound states such as protons and neutrons, but you would still be a lot lighter if it would just be the quark masses


WarmBloodedAlien

It seems like the Higgs field should be some kind of way to store energy in the form of a particle. Like freezing water into ice cubes in an ice tray. The shape of the icecube is determined by the tray. The shape of the particle is determined by the Higgs field. Mass is just stored energy.

I thought weight was measured in Newtons


Grantelkade

Mass!==Weight. Weight is a force inflicted by a gravitational pull and it being stopped so It’s 0 while they fall. They could go orbit earth or something.
