Abstract

A relation connecting the \itrest mass and \itseparation of events in space-time continuum is suggested and the idea of Compton scattering is used as a method for the determination of rest mass. An experiment involving collision of photons resulting in creation of rest mass is discussed theoretically in order to illustrate the connection formula.
