Monte Carlo simulation of positronium thermalization in gases [PDF]
In this paper we present the results of Monte Carlo simulations of positronium (Ps) swarm thermalization in helium (He) and water vapour. We have investigated the temporal evolution of energy and spatial parameters of the swarm and their sensitivity to ...

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 ...

Au/GaAs interface annealing study by positron-lifetime spectroscopy [PDF]
Structural changes of annealed Au contacts on semi-insulating GaAs have been observed by conventional positron lifetime-spectroscopy in which a significant fraction of positrons are drifted from a Na22 source to the contact by an electric field.

Positron lifetime study of ion-irradiated tungsten: Ion type and dose effects
Polycrystalline recrystallized tungsten samples were irradiated with 7.5 MeV Si ions and 9 MeV Cu ions to three different damage levels (0.01, 0.1, 0.5 dpa at 200 nm depth) at 295 K.

Principles of positron porosimetry
The paper deals with positron porosimetry (PP), which is based on positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS). The numerical analysis of positron lifetime spectra for PP is more demanding than in most of other applications of PALS.
