According to fermilab link
http://www.fnal.gov/pub/inquiring/questions/antimatter1.html
Proton antiproton annihilation at rest releases 1.8 GeV energy, but compare this to annihilation at 2 GeV,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton_antiproton_annihilation#Proton-antiproton_annihilation_at_2.C2.A0GeV [Broken]
The energy released if we add the kinetic energy of the photons would come close to the same amount of energy observed at rest, shouldn't it be more? where am i wrong?
