Have scientists made any progress in the field of light-ray
storage?
The ability to store data in particles of light -- rather than
electrons -- could revolutionize medicine.

Can anybody point me any site where I can get list of all elementary
particles along with particle's properties.
Thanks in advance,

I know that the relationship E = mc^2 is well accepted, and is well
confirmed experimentally by the mass increase of relativistic particles.
However, do we also have experimental evidence to show that all of the
energy contained within a particle contributes to its mass.  I.e. ...

Got some quesions regarding RF radiation, which I know
nothing about. I earlier (not to this group) posted some
questions regarding the possibility of RF 'lasers'. At
the time I couldn't see it would be possible to create

Can anyone direct me to work on the subject of particle structure
(specifically neutrinos and anti-neutrinos), and relation to electric
charge?

can anyone recommend any good classical physics books?

I read the following article.
"New Estimate for the Mass of Higgs Boson"
http://www.universetoday.com/am/publish/new_estimate_mass_higgs_boson.html?962004
In the article, it says the following:

A virtual electron-positron pair is created in the vacuum
and then annihilates.In this loop the energy of one of the virtual
particles does not have to follow E^2 = p^2c^2 + m^2c^4 because the
other particle can compensate for its failure to do so.This leads to

Can quantum science really be sure they exist? If so can we determine
their shape, charge, and possibly their exact location at any given
time? I dont know too much about this topic, so please dont flame me
for it.

I recently purchased a copy of mathematica from someone who gave me a
"license numebr" and a "math-id number", saying this is what is needed
to make the software work. I have at times bought used/old software
from people who didn't need it for whatever reason and, possibly

Zwicky 18 at 45 million light years away and 500 million years old does not fit
in with the idea that all the galaxies were created at one time!

Would there be enough energy in a magnetic monopole of 10^16 Gev
(some GUTs predict this energy) to flatten a forest of trees?
And if so, how would the monopole release this energy?

A universe made of positive matter would repel a universe
made of negative matter.These two universes would need some attractive
