I missed the earlier part of this thread. Are we talking about the
recent creation of positon-electron pairs by colliding real (as
opposed to virtual) photons?
The "frequency" of a thing is proportional to it's mass, so there
is a meaning to putting frequencies of electrons and photons on
the same spectrum: a photon at a certain frequency (isn't it close
to the split between X and gamma rays?) has a mass like that of
an electron.
