SCANALYZER: TRACKING WITH CLOSEUPS: The Most Massive Five-Atom Compound https://scanalyst.fourmilab.ch/t/the-most-massive-five-atom-compound/901 … #SCANALYST
re https://www.fourmilab.ch/documents/golden_glow/ … is the increase in the mass of the electrons bc of relativistic effects "real" and measurable in the real world? (I realize that the infinitesimal weight of e vs neutrons might make this hard to notice ... )

The increase in mass of the electrons is indirectly measured by the shift in the spectral absorption of the outer shell electrons from the ultraviolet you'd calculate classically into the blue from a relativistic computation. It would be too small to directly weigh.

The mass increase with velocity is directly measurable in electron particle accelerators and compensating for it is a key part of their design. Relativistic effects on electrons also explains why mercury is a liquid at room temperature:https://www.chemistryworld.com/news/relativity-behind-mercurys-liquidity/6297.article …
