An electron (rest mass me) of
energy E makes a head-on collision with a positron (positron is
electron’s antiparticle, it has the same mass as electron, but
opposite charge) In collision the two particles annihilate each
other and are replaces by two photons (γ rays) of equal energy,
each traveling at equal angles θ with electron’s direction of
motion. Find 1. The energy of each photon. 2. The momentum p of
each photon. 3. The angle θ.

An electron and a positron each have a mass of 9.11 ×
10-31 kg. They collide and both vanish, with only
electromagnetic radiation appearing after the collision. If each
particle is moving at a speed of 0.42c relative to the
laboratory before the collision, determine the energy of the
electromagnetic radiation.
