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.

When a fast electron (i.e., one moving at a relativistic speed) passes by a heavy atom, it interacts with the atom's electric field. As a result, the electron's kinetic energy is reduced, the electron slows down in the meantime, a photon of light is emitted. The kinetic energy lost by the electron equals the energy E_r of a photon of radiated light. E = K - K', where K and K' are the kinetic energies of the electron before and...
