The total energy carried by π+ in the rest frame of K+ can be calculated from
Eπ+ = (mK2 + mπ2 − mν2)/2mk = 265MeV ....(1)
γc = γ∗π+ = 265/139.5 = 1.9
and βc = βπ∗ = (γ∗2π+ − 1)1/2/γ∗π+
In the rest frame of pion, the total energy of muon is obtained again by (1)
Eμ+2 = (mμ+2 + mπ+2 − 0)/2mπ+ = 110MeV
γμ∗ = 110/106 = 1.0377
βμ∗ = (γ∗2μ − 1)1/2/γμ∗ = 0.267
The Lorentz factor γμ for the muon in the LS is obtained from γμ = γcγ∗μ(1+ β∗μβccos θ∗μ) where θ∗μ is the emission angle of the motion in the rest frame of pion. Put θ∗μ = 0 to obtain γμ(max) and θ∗μ = 180◦ to obtain γμ(min). The maximum and minimum kinetic energies are 150 and 55.5 MeV.
