In which frame of reference?
- jcims 8y agoI think that's the detail underlying my question. Does the interaction collapse the frames of reference into one? I guess it doesn't have to.
- kijin 8y agoThe time of collision is not a problem, it happens at a different time depending on which photon's frame of reference we're talking about. Which frame of reference the resulting particles might "inherit", well, that's a very interesting question that I've never thought about!
