Hello,
I regard a proton-proton collision. (Target at rest.)
Here accrues a [itex]
K^{+}(494)
[/itex]-meson.
I want to callculate the threshold energy.
But I think for callculating the threshold I have to know all participant of the product.
Can i assume, that the protons will not be destroyed?
$$
p~+p~\rightarrow~p~+~p~+~K^{+}
$$
(On the other hand I know, that for producing a [itex]K^{+}[/itex], which contains an [itex]\bar{s}[/itex]-quark, due to strangeness-conservation, a proton must be replaced by an [itex]\lambda(1116)[/itex]-hyperon, which contains an s-quark. )
