Low-energy positron interactions with atoms and molecules
This paper is a review of low-energy positron interactions with atoms and molecules. Processes of interest include elastic scattering, electronic and vibrational excitation, ionization, positronium formation and annihilation. An overview is presented of the currently available theoretical and experimental techniques to study these phenomena, including the use of trap-based positron beam sources...
متن کاملFeshbach-resonance-mediated annihilation in positron interactions with large molecules
Measurements of positron-on-molecule annihilation have established that positrons attach to a variety of molecules via vibrational Feshbach resonances VFRs . These resonances, in turn, result in greatly enhanced positron annihilation rates beyond those expected in simple collisions. A recent paper J. A. Young and C. M. Surko, Phys. Rev. Lett. 99, 133201 2007 described experimental studies and a...
متن کاملDipole enhancement of positron binding to molecules.
Measurements of positron-molecule binding energies are made for molecules with large permanent dipole moments (>2.7 D), by studying vibrational-Feshbach-mediated annihilation resonances as a function of incident positron energy. The binding energies are relatively large (e.g., ≥90 meV) as compared to those for similar sized molecules studied previously and analogous weakly bound electron-mole...
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...
