Podle teorie kvantového pole může být pár kladných a záporných částic zničen do páru vysokoenergetických gamafotonů a pár vysokoenergetických gamafotonů může také reagovat při vysokých teplotách, aby produkoval pár kladných a záporných částic.Například>>>1 50>teplota< verze fotonů v obaryontech, jako jsou protony a neutrony se mohou vyskytovat.

Z Einsteinova vztahu hmotnost-energie a vzorce fotonové energie lze horní hranici hmotnosti fotonu získat jen velmi těžko:m=hν/< i>c2
Zde jemhorní mez hmotnosti fotonu aνje frekvence jakékoli elektromagnetické vlny, což je Schumannova rezonance v ultranízkofrekvenčním pásmu. Nejnižší známá frekvence je asi 7,8 Hz (Hertz).

Energie a hybnost fotonisonu souvisí pouze s frekvencíνfotonu; orita souvisí pouze s vlnovou délkouλ. Tak se hybnost fotoni získá jako p=h/λ=hv/ c.

Někteří lidé výše si myslí, že je to špatně, protože dynamická hmotnost fotonu je bezero a statická hmotnost fotonu je nulová, jinak bude jeho dynamická hmotnost nekonečná. Ale jeho dynamická hmotnost existuje. Metoda výpočtu je následující: Zaprvé, protože energie fotonu s frekvencíEh zde< i>hje Planckova konstanta), hmotnost půdy lze získat ze vzorce hmotnost-energie:m=E/c2 =hv/c2kdec2představuje čtverec rychlosti světla. Tuto metodu jako první navrhl Einstein.
