A high-energy gamma-photon may turn into an electron-positron pair in the field of heavy nuclei. What is the minimum energy of the gamma-photon?

Answer»

SOLUTION :From the law of conservation of energy we obtain for the gamma-photon `epsi_(gamma)ge2m_(0)C^(2)`, where `m_(0)` is the REST mass of an ELECTRON.
