    Finding the velocity of an emitted particle from a decay

    Okay thank you! I think I have it now.

    Necessary KE of particles to create a resulting particle in a collision

    So I am making the assumption that the resulting particle Z is emitted at rest. For part a I believe that since the two positron beams are symmetric they would each provide half of the energy to create the Z particle so the KE of each positron would be 91.187GeV/2, I am ignoring the rest energy...

    Finding the velocity of an emitted particle from a decay

    So I know that the total energy of the system initially is 775.5MeV, because the meson is at rest. Also by conservation of energy I know that the total final energy of the system is the same thing. I also know that the initial momentum of the system is 0 because the particle is at rest. This...
