[General] relativistic mass

Dear Martin,

In your "Light is Heavy" you state:

"In the case of light, the rest mass is zero, but the gravitational mass
equals the inertial mass, which is identical to the relativistic mass."

Do you have any reference for my contention that the relativistic mass of
particles is bound EM-radiation?

In the case of electron/positron annihilation, restmass is converted to
relativistic mass & then to radiation. However, I do not know of any text
or paper that identifies relativistic mass as bound EM-radiation. Your
statement is close to that.

Andrew
