Positron Annihilation Spectroscopy
Positron annihilation spectroscopy is nowadays well recognised as a powerful tool of microstructure investigations of condensed matter. An overview of the method aimed for users from other fields is given and supplemented with several examples of applications.
متن کاملInvestigations of Positron Annihilation Radiation
By combining OSSE, SMM and TGRS observations of the galactic center region, Purcell et al. (1997) and Cheng et al. (1997) produced the first maps of galactic positron annihilation. That data-set has been augmented with additional data, both recent and archival, and re-analyzed to improve the spectral fitting. The improved spectral fitting has enabled the first maps of positronium continuum emis...
متن کاملGamma-Rays from Positron Annihilation
SPI on INTEGRAL has provided spectra and a map of the sky in the emission from annihilations of positrons in the interstellar medium of our Galaxy. From high-resolution spectra we learned that a warm, partially-ionized medium is the site where the observed gamma-rays originate. The gamma-ray emission map shows a major puzzle for broader astrophysics topics, as it is dominated by a bright and ex...
متن کاملPositron Annihilation in Medical Substances of Insulin
Positrons lifetimes were measured in medical substances of insulin (human and animal), differing as far as the degree of purity and time of their activity in the organism are concerned. In all of the cases the spectrum of positron lifetime was distributed into three components, with the long-life component ranging from 1.8 to 2.08 ns and the intensity taking on values from 18 to 24%. Making use...
متن کاملMechanisms of positron annihilation on molecules
The aim of this work is to identify the mechanisms responsible for very large rates and other peculiarities observed in low-energy positron annihilation on molecules. The two mechanisms considered are: (i) Direct annihilation of the incoming positron with one of the molecular electrons. This mechanism dominates for atoms and small molecules. I show that its contribution to the annihilation rate...
