Is there a reason why a velocity measurement would need to be so
precise as to cause infinite energy to be required? IMHO, this is not
a good reason to reject a velocity operator. Is there perhaps a
different reason? What am I missing here?
In the Standard Model, elementary fermions are massless without an interaction with the Higgs field.
Best,

I did a calculation of what happens to the mass matrix during the transformation from the Dirac-Pauli representation to the Newton-Wigner representation via Foldy-Wouthuysen. This is shown in:

Not sure where to go from there, but I'll be away the rest of the week
on vacation, so I'll take another look when I return.
Best,
Jay.
