Hi,
I'm considering the following process
n+p→d+[itex]\gamma[/itex] where d is the deuteron and [itex]\gamma[/itex] a photon.
I want to find out the energy of the photon. I know it will be much less than the rest mass of the deuteron (1875.666 MeV/c2). Can I simply use conservation of energy here?
i.e E[itex]\gamma[/itex] = Ei - Ef?
Thanks :)
