IIUC, the combined mass of an electron and proton is larger than the hydrogen atom they form at recombination time. Thus, I would expect a very narrow pulse of energy as a result when recombination occurs. This apparently being the case, why does the CMBR have a black body distribution and not a pulse with a very narrow spread? TIA, AG
