For the same reason, it is possible to subtract the rest energy from the total energy in relativity.

We see that the rest energy is an independent invariant.

When the mass of the two particles are converted entirely into energy, this rest energy is what is given off.

On the basis of Einstein's principle of mass-energy equivalence, this mass corresponds to a rest energy of 0.511 MeV.

By considering the emission of energy in different frames, Einstein could show that the rest energy has a real physical meaning.

Here the two terms on the right hand side are identified with the total energy and the rest energy of the object, respectively.
