@lemouth  This is a great explanation, but isn't the higgs contribution to mass actually very,very tiny for items at rest?  Doesn't it's contribution increase with the speed of the particle?

I'm only wondering because I watched this one and they seemed to be explaining it differently.  In that interaction with the higgs field was proportional to speed.

Curious to know how inaccurate that is.

The video and my explanations agree. It however gives much more detail than I do.

I do not see where you observe any contradiction. Could you please be more specific?

> isn't the higgs contribution to mass actually very,very tiny for items at rest? Doesn't it's contribution increase with the speed of the particle? 

The Higgs is the way to model the mass within the Standard Model. Taking the example of the electron, the strength of the interaction of the Higgs with the electron implies the value of the mass of the electron. There is no other contribution as the electron is elementary. You may be confused with composite objects like protons and neutrons whose mass is the sum of the masses of their constituents plus the binding energy which turns out to be the dominant contribution.

I didn't understand it that way. Could you please be more specific?

Yeah actually you're right I was just tired.  I'm still in the stage of life where protons neutrons and electrons are all considered elementary.  I still tend to forget these are not even the same class of particles.

Oh fyi, same company just realized a video explaining the 5th force.  Literally just about word for word the same thing you said.  You working with those guys or something?

Finally, I just did a blog posting ostensibly on the big bang.  The reality is it's there to make people question if they believe a thing because of science or because it's commonly known.  big bang is just a good example.  I really do appreciate the efforts you guys are doing on the standard model though.  Even if you straight up believed god himself set the big bang and the fundamental constants I wouldn't call that religion because you're doing the actual hard  science of exploring and proving these things.

So I hope you don't take offense to the post.  It's just there to make people question dearly held assumptions.  Hopefully provoke them into thinking more critically.  Also it does provide an alternative to the big bang, while providing a candidate for dark energy near as I can tell, so there's that.  ;)  Hope you enjoy it!

Maybe. Do you have a list of names somewhere? 

Concerning the fifth force, I was visiting UC Irvine at the time they were writing their second paper. I had hence the chance to discuss a lot with the authors last May ^^

Concerning the big bang, it is fine. Don't worry. In any case, we are not capable to prove it at the moment, so as soon as other options are not being refuted in the light of present data and theoretical consistency, they are equally fine.
