Do the neutrinos have mass?

Do the neutrinos have mass, or not? Some texts say yes (but small) some
say no.

Note that “no mass” is a shorthand expression for “mass equals zero (units
of mass)”.

The experimentally confirmed neutrino oscillation requires neutrinos to have
a small, non-zero mass. If that is so, then the standard model of particle
physics (SM), which requires them to have mass zero, is incomplete.

For that reason and other reasons, extensions to the SM, such as SUSY
(supersymmetry), are being tested, e.g. at particle accelerators like the
Large Hadron Collider (LHC).

====================
even the nutrino that once has been considered as ''no mass''
was found to have mass


NO MASS --NO REAL PHYSICS !!
moreover
mass IS THE CREATOR OF ALL FORCES !!

Not really. Today we use the word "particle" as a shortcut for
"excitation of a quantum field". There is no necessity for a quantum
field to have nonzero mass, and as far as we know today the photon field
has zero mass (the upper limit on its mass is INCREDIBLY small, 1E-18 eV).

N.B. The observations of neutrino oscillations directly imply that at
least 2 of the 3 known neutrinos have nonzero mass, with an upper limit
of 2 eV. The oscillations imply mass differences much smaller than that.

==========================
according to my findings
ans it is well documented in sci.physics manny years ago
so the mass of the photon is about (sit sit steady on your chair(
so it is about

exp-90 KILOGRAM !!!
it is based on
E=hf !!!
