Homework Statement
Two photon (wavelengths 1pm, 2pm) collide, decaying into a pair positron-electron find the velocities of these particles
Everything happens in the x axis
Homework Equations
The system
hc(1*1012+0.5*1012)=E++E-
h(1*1012-0.5*1012)=P+-P-
E=sqrt(c2P2+m2c4)
The Attempt at a Solution
Well this yields a 2 page attempt at solving this system so i won't bother pasting it here. I have a feeling that like for finding the compton wave length, there is a specific path i should take that would make everything go smoother. I just can't find it
