A high energy proton can collide with a photon to produce a charged pion and a neutron. If the photon comes from the cosmic microwave background and has an energy equivalent to a temperature of 3 K, what is the minimum energy of the proton in eV necessary to allow this reaction?
I'm thinking about momentum of a photon and stuff.. is my approach correct ? if not what should be done ?
