Thank you for the links, but I was unable to understand much because of my lack of physics background. | |

The situation becomes more complex and qualitatively different at high energies. Nevertheless, such high energy scattering should be quite rare in the natural world (and currently impossible in the Lab) for the reasons you outline. | |
