The Origin of Mass
Every extended system has inevitably an inertial behaviour;
this is independent of any eventual mass of the constituents
Cause is the finite speed of light ‘c’

From the equations:
where
So Planck’s constant ħ is fully defined by the field strength of the Strong Interaction,and it defines the Strong Interaction
we get
which depends on the field constant of the bind and on natural constants (as ‘c’)

The Origin of Mass
Mainstream objections against this model:
1. Experiments at LEP (CERN) and HERA (DESY) have proven that elementary particles are
point-like
2. Basic Particle Model does not conform to QED and QCD. These theories have very precise
results and state point-like particles
3. The Higgs Model explains mass

The Origin of Mass
Objection 1:
“Experiments at LEP (CERN) and HERA (DESY) have proven that elementary particles are
point-like”
Argument: In case of an internal structure inelastic scattering would cause the particle to be
excited or decomposed.
Counter-argument:
A. With constituents without mass a decomposition is not possible
B. With constituents already moving at ‘c’ no excitation is possible

The Origin of Mass
Objection 2: The Basic Particle Model is in clear conflict to QED and QCD. These theories have very
precise results and state point-like particles
So the model must be wrong.
Counter-argument:
Present theories (QED and QCD) are mathematical models with little physics within. They treat
an elementary particle as a black box – they describe certain properties of particles very
precisely, others not at all.
Historical example:
The Rydberg-Formula (1900) treated the atom as a black box
without an internal structure. Nevertheless it described the energy
levels of the atom very precisely

Conflict with present particle theories?
Objection 3: There is already a theory to explain mass: The Higgs Theory. – Nothing more is needed
Counter-argument:
A. The Higgs Theory assumes an a-priory mass for the Higgs boson. So it does not explain
mass from the scratch as is necessary
State 1: No mass State 2: Mass
Mass generating process
Higgs:
State 1:Higgs mass State 2: Mass??/New mass??
Mass generating process??

Objection 3 (cont.): There is already a theory to explain mass: The Higgs Theory. – Nothing more is needed
Counter-argument (cont.):
B. The Higgs Theory is only possible by use of the Standard Model and Supersymmetry
- The Standard Model has 19 free parameters for 12 independent particles
- Incl. SuSy there are 124 free parameters for 24 independent particles.
Is that a honestly usable theory??
C. No indication of the Higgs-Boson or of any SuSy particle was ever seen
