The origin of the mass of the visible universe
Prof. Dr. Zoltan Fodor (Bergische Universtät Wuppertal)

More than 99% of the mass of the visible universe is made up of protons and neutrons. Both particles are much heavier than their quark and gluon constituents, and the Standard Model of particle physics should explain this difference. A full ab initio calculation of the masses of protons, neutrons, and other light hadrons, using lattice quantum chromodynamics is presented. The results completely agree with experimental observations and represent a quantitative confirmation of this aspect of the Standard Model with fully controlled uncertainties.
