Question

Why does Quantum Mechanics not follow Einstein's Theory of General Relativity? If that's completely true, [we know that "The Higgs boson does not technically give other particles mass. More precisely, the particle is a quantized manifestation of a field (the Higgsfield) that generates mass through its interaction with other particles." ] will it follow the famous equation E=mc²?

Answer 1

Let me warn you, that the conclusions that come by using quantum mechanics are very much different when compared to that of the real wold. The Quantum mechanics is a study of the smallest, or lets say the the study of the smallest possibilities and existence. (If you are a Marvel comic fan, you should be knowing about the Quantum realm, where the Ant-man entered in and came out) Haha!, I was trying to give a picture of it. Anything in the Quantum realm doesn't work the same as that of the laws of physics in the real world that we are in. They work entirely different. Einstein's theory is limited only within where there is application of Classical Mechanics.

In Classical Mechanics, the results are simple and straight forward. The value that is been acquired exists to be specific. Where in the Quantum Mechanics the results are found to be only to that of a probability density, or a haze of probabilities without giving a single value alone.

Let's say the true base of Quantum theory was from that of the argument whether, light was a particle or a wave. Due to the dual nature of the nuclear particles , quantum mechanics was born. When considering light as a wave, as it is proved in various experiments, Einstein's relativity doesn't hold to the equation that is needed to that of a wave. It doesn't give enough information about the wave.

Then years later, the concept of photon came into existence, which gave the idea of dual nature of particles i.e "Wave particle duality". Hence , talking about the photon's properties, quantum Mechanics started giving more valid and clear information than the relativity equation. Hence E = mc² doesn't give the whole set of information, unless considered as particles.
