Hadron pair production in semi-inclusive electron positron annihilation process at twist-4 [PDF]
Fragmentation functions are important quantities in describing the hadronization process in high energy reactions. They can induce various azimuthal modulations which can be measured to reveal correlations between transverse momenta and polarizations ...

Characterization of secondary-radiation background in X-ray flat-panel detectors during scanning proton beam irradiation. [PDF]
Abstract Background Secondary‐radiation background (BG) generated in kilovoltage X‐ray flat‐panel detectors (FPDs) under scanning proton beam irradiation has not been thoroughly analyzed. Purpose This study aimed to determine and mathematically model the characteristics of secondary‐radiation BG in FPDs under scanning proton beam irradiation.

Anomalous Positron Lifetime in Single Crystal of Weyl Semimetal CoSi
The positron annihilation lifetimes were measured using a 48V positron source in noncentrosymmetric cubic single crystals of CoSi, FeSi and MnSi. The following lifetimes were determined from the positron annihilation time spectra: 168(1) ps for CoSi, 114(

New physics searches at the ILC positron and electron beam dumps
We study capability of the ILC beam dump experiment to search for new physics, comparing the performance of the electron and positron beam dumps. The dark photon, axion-like particles, and light scalar bosons are considered as new physics scenarios ...

Calculation of Low-Energy Positron-Atom Scattering with Square-Integrable Wavefunctions
The variational method is applied to the low-energy positron scattering and annihilation problem. The ultimate aim of the investigation is to find a computationally economical way of accounting for strong electron–positron correlations, including the ...

Efficient and surface site-selective ion desorption by positron annihilation
We compared positron- and electron-stimulated desorption (e+SD and ESD) of positive ions from a TiO2(110) surface. Although desorption of O+ ions was observed in both experiments, the desorption efficiency caused by positron bombardment was larger by one

Surfaces of colloidal PbSe nanocrystals probed by thin-film positron annihilation spectroscopy
Positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy and positron-electron momentum density (PEMD) studies on multilayers of PbSe nanocrystals (NCs), supported by transmission electron microscopy, show that positrons are strongly trapped at NC surfaces, where ...
