In modern collider experiments the beam energy K has much greater energy than its rest energy (K >> mc 2 ) . If two particles each of mass m collide head-on with each having beam energy K, the energy in the center of mass Ecm = 2K. Show that two particles of the same mass m colliding head-on with each having kinetic energy K (K >> mc 2 ) have the same center-of-mass energy as the same particle of energy Klab in a fixed-target accelerator colliding with the same target particle, where
