So is it really the energy of coupling between particles and Higgs field (along with other kinds of energy and momentum) that reshapes the spacetime?

- slowmovintarget 3y agoI don't think I know the math well enough to answer the question definitively, but given my surface understanding of the Standard Model and GR... I think so (though I suspect "energy of coupling" is the wrong way to put it).
- andrewflnr 3y agoMost mass of massive objects doesn't come from the higgs mechanism. It's mostly the relativistic mass (?) of binding energy in protons and neutrons. So, I'm not sure the Higgs field needs to be involved at all.
