So we find E'/E=sqrt(3), and we know that the energy of the two photons have to add up to the energy of the ∏° meson. I am still confused on where to go from there. For part (a) I tried to solve for the velocity of the ∏° meson by using the 9:1 photon energy relationship using the doppler...

Homework Statement A ∏° meson moving with a velocity v in the z direction decays into two photons. One of the photons travels in the z direction and the other travels in the minus z direction. a) If one photon has an energy that is nine times greater than the other photon, calculate the speed...
