Mass pisses physics off?

Featured Replies

I understand very little about physics at the moment so if what I'm about to say is absolute horse-shit please let me know where I'm wrong. I most likely am.

 

Watch this 3 minute video about higgs boson particle - http://cosmiclog.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2012/07/05/12583436-the-higgs-boson-explained-in-just-a-bit-more-than-a-minute?lite

 

So apparentley When they introduce mass to equations, the equation messes up?

 

Well then in theory would we be able to convert mass to something else for the equations to be solved?

 

I've thrown this around before but would a mass to gravitational field proportion help?

converting mass to a gravitational field and throwing the "g-field" into the equation rather than mass itself?

 

I know its not really a conversion and its more of a proportion but would the g-field sufficiently represent where mass should be in an equation?
