- TL;DR Summary
- 1% of a proton's mass is quarks. 99% is mass thats been converted from energy. whats the 99% thought to be exactly? Identityless? Is it gluons or what?
i just watched this:
and now im wondering, jsut as when the atom bomb converts mass into energy and we can measure it in force and heat and electromagnetic radiation of various wavelengths, obviously just grams, but of what? what particle would we say is representing the 99% of a proton's mass that energy makes up? interquark vacuum volume-grams? i just made that last term up idk. is it liek a fraction of a quark?
thanks
