So, some of the 7·m^2 is going to
-
give a momentum to the fragment of the collision,
-
and some is to create them.
-
And the way we found out the minimum energy
-
is we did energy-momentum calculation.
-
But the minimum energy configuration is easily imagined
-
in the center of mass frame.
-
That's the whole point.
-
Not in the lab frame, the center of mass frame.
-
That's why accelerators, nowadays,
-
are taking one particle
-
that can move faster and faster and hitting a target.
