What I like about my science
What is the origin of mass? We don't know why the mass of the protons and neutrons that compose our bodies is so heavy. A candidate reason is thought to be spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking. Chiral symmetry breaking is believed to make the elementary particles that make up hadrons, such as protons and neutrons, heavier. My research is to clarify this experimentally.
