On page 41 for the spontaneous disintegration of a particle into two, Landau states the total momentum in the C system is zero.
On page 43 for the disintegration of many particles into two, Landau states: In the C system... every resulting particle (of a given kind) has the same energy...
I thought the kinetic energies of the resulting particles are different when viewed from the C system. So by C system does he still mean a system where a primary particle has zero momentum? From each of these systems, the resulting particles of a given kind will have the same energy.
