Pair Annihilation Effects on Surface Ion Cyclotron Wave in Semi-bounded Electron-positron-ion Plasmas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The electron-positron pair annihilation effects on the surface ion cyclotron wave are investigated in magnetized electron-positron-ion plasmas in atmospheres of neutron stars.

Single-shot positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy using a liquid scintillator

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2021
Liquid scintillators provide a fast, single component response. However, they traditionally have a low flashpoint and high vapor pressure. We demonstrate the use of an EJ-309 scintillator (high flashpoint and low vapor pressure variant) to acquire single-

Seeing radiation: Applications of an imaging survey meter in radiation oncology

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Background and purpose Radiation shielding surveys require location and evaluation of radiation hotspots in shielding barriers. This process is normally done by using a conventional survey meter and slowly moving the survey meter manually across the face of the barrier.

Positron Spectroscopy of Nanodiamonds after Hydrogen Sorption

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2018
The structure and defects of nanodiamonds influence the hydrogen sorption capacity. Positronium can be used as a sensor for detecting places with the most efficient capture of hydrogen atoms.

Powers That Be: An Adventure in Metaphysics

open access: yesPhilosophical Investigations, Volume 49, Issue 4, Page 343-348, October 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper is an investigation into the increasingly popular trend amongst philosophers on the metaphysics of powers, exemplified by the statement: ‘To be real is to possess a power to affect (or to be affected by) other things’. First, I briefly trace the history of this idea (from the Eleatic dialectic of ancient times to present day quantum

Algorithm for Shifting Positron Annihilation Spectra [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We present a simple procedure which allows us to shift the positron annihilation spectra, e.g., the Doppler broadening spectrum of the annihilation line.

Hadron pair production in semi-inclusive electron positron annihilation process at twist-4

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2022
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 ...

Using positron annihilation spectroscopy for the control of humidity-sensitive processes in nanoporous MgAl2O4 ceramics

open access: yesТехнологія та конструювання в електронній апаратурі, 2006
Nanoporous spinel‑type MgAl2O4 ceramics sintered at 1100 and 1400 °C, considered as promising materials for humidity sensors, were investigated using positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS). It is demonstrated that PALS can be applied to study
