I think if you are measuring the 'mass' of a particle in electron megavolts there's little point distinguishing between mass and energy.

Am I mistaken? Maybe it's just semantics. In any case, I'm no expert, and what little I know about this stuff comes mainly from Taylor and Wheeler, Lev Okun, and Matt Strassler (whose site I linked to above).
