To understand what happens during the decay in the frame of reference of the lab, we need to boost in the beam direction, taken to be in the z-direction. The Lorentz Boost in the z-direction is given by:  \begin{equation}\label{mat:lorenz} \begin{equation}  = \begin{bmatrix}  \gamma & 0 & 0 & - \beta \gamma \\  0 & 1 & 0 & 0 \\
