The talk consists of three parts. ``History'' briefly describes the emergence and evolution of the concept of photon during the first two decades of the 20th century. ``Mass'' gives a short review of the literature on the upper limit of the photon's mass. ``Charge'' is a critical discussion of the existing interpretation of searches for photon charge. Schemes, in which all photons are charged, are grossly inconsistent. A model with three kinds of photons (positive, negative and neutral) seems at first sight to be more consistent, but turns out to have its own serious problems.

Bounding the photon mass with gravitationally lensed fast radio bursts
Using the time delay and flux ratio of the lensed FRB candidate FRB 20190308C, the authors derive an upper bound on the photon mass of 5.3e-42 kg for a lens shear of 0.01, and between 2.4e-42 and 2.1e-41 kg over the a...
