Constraints on heavy dark matter annihilation and decay from electron and positron cosmic ray spectra

open access: yesSciPost Physics Proceedings, 2023
Annihilation or decay of dark matter (DM) could contribute to the electron and positron cosmic-ray flux, allowing for constraints on DM parameters from its measurement.

Detection of the 511 keV Galactic Positron Annihilation Line with COSI [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2019
The signature of positron annihilation, namely the 511 keV γ-ray line, was first detected coming from the direction of the Galactic center in the 1970s, but the source of Galactic positrons still remains a puzzle.

New physics searches at the ILC positron and electron beam dumps

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
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 ...

Constraints on positron annihilation kinematics in the inner Galaxy [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2019
Context. The annihilation of cosmic positrons with electrons in the interstellar medium results in the strongest persistent γ-ray line signal in the sky.

Polarization and entanglement in baryon–antibaryon pair production in electron–positron annihilation [PDF]

open access: yesNature Physics, 2018
Particles directly produced at electron–positron colliders, such as the J/ψ meson, decay with relatively high probability into a baryon–antibaryon pair1. For spin-1/2 baryons, the pair can have the same or opposite helicites.

Dark photon production through positron annihilation in beam-dump experiments [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2018
High energy positron annihilation is a viable mechanism to produce dark photons ($A^\prime$). This reaction plays a significant role in beam-dump experiments using experiments using multi-GeV electron-beams on thick targets by enhancing the sensitivity ...

Myocardial Perfusion Defects in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Mutation Carriers

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association, EarlyView., 2021
Background Impaired myocardial blood flow (MBF) in the absence of epicardial coronary disease is a feature of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Although most evident in hypertrophied or scarred segments, reduced MBF can occur in apparently normal segments.

Split Ga vacancies and the unusually strong anisotropy of positron annihilation spectra in β−Ga2O3

open access: yes, 2020
We report a systematic first principles study on positron annihilation parameters in the $\beta$-Ga$_2$O$_3$ lattice and Ga mono-vacancy defects complemented with orientation-dependent experiments of the Doppler broadening of the positron-electron ...

Positron Binding and Annihilation in Alkane Molecules. [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2019
A model-potential approach has been developed to study positron interactions with molecules. Binding energies and annihilation rates are calculated for positron bound states with a range of alkane molecules, including rings and isomers.

A single shot gamma-induced positron spectroscopy based on laser wakefield accelerator

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2021
Single shot gamma-induced positron annihilation spectroscopy (GiPS) based on a laser wakefield accelerator is proposed. In this spectroscopy, a large number of gamma rays generated by laser-wakefield accelerated electrons are injected into a sample in a ...
