How Does Conservation of Momentum Apply to Particle Decay?
Attempt at solution: By conservation of momentum: $$P = (M,0,0,0) = p_1 + p_2 = (E_1 + E_2, 0, 0,0)$$ thus $$ M = E_1 + E_2 = 2k^2 + m_1^2 + m_2^2$$ Now $$E_1^2 - E_2^2 = m_1^2 - m_2^2 = (m_1 + m_2)(m_1-m_2)$$ $$ = M(m_1-m_2) = (2k^2+m_1^2+m_2^2)(m_1-m_2)$$ Isolating k: $$ k =...- Wledig
