Fucking imbecile. http://prola.aps.org/abstract/PRL/v90/i8/e081801 Phys. Rev. Lett. 90 081801 (2003) Phys. Rev. Lett. 80 1826 (1998) Phys. Rev. Lett. 68 23 3383 (1992) Phys. Rev. D 8 2349 (1973) Photon rest mass is less than 10^(-51) grams or 7x10^(-19) electron volts. If the photon had non-zero rest mass then electromagnetism would have a finite range and force proportional to 1/r^2 would not obtain. \ > BTW, of passing near the sun, what's the all inclusive (meaning full > electromagnetic spectrum) worth of photon population/cm3 ?
