**Physics Problem 3.15** A pion traveling at speed \( \nu \) decays into a muon and a neutrino: \[ \pi^- \rightarrow \mu^- + \overline{\nu}_\mu \]. If the neutrino emerges at \(90^\circ\) to the original pion direction, at what angle does the \( \mu \) come off? **Answer:** \[ \tan \theta = \frac{(1 - m_\mu^2/m_\pi^2)}{(2 \beta \nu^2)} \]
