Problem

When protons collide on a collision course, a particle with a field mass k times greater than the rest mass of the proton m can be born: p p = p+p →\rightarrow p+p+M, M = km . p Determine the minimum mass of moving protons for which this reaction is possible. What is the minimum proton velocity?
