Rotational and Vibrational as Well as Linear Kinetic Energies Should Be Included In Pair Production and Annihilation Energy Calculations

ORAL

Abstract

Including rotational and vibrational as well as Linear kinetic energies in pair production and annihilation calculations may produce a better reconcilation between theoretical and experimental values. The creating photon may produce particle vibration and/or rotation as well as possibly linear motion besides mass: $hf= [(m_0c^2)_+ + (m_0c^2)_- + (1/2I\omega^2)_+ + (1/2I\omega^2)_- + (1/2kx^2)_+ + (1/2kx^2)_-]$. In pair annihilation at least two photons may be produced: $hf_1+...+hf_n = (m_0c^2)_+ + (m_0c^2)_- + (1/2I\omega^2)_+ + (1/2I\omega^2)_- + (1/2kx^2)_+ + (1/2kx^2)_-$.
