Testing CPT symmetry in ortho-positronium decays with positronium annihilation tomography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Charged lepton system symmetry under combined charge, parity, and time-reversal transformation (CPT) remains scarcely tested. Despite stringent quantum-electrodynamic limits, discrepancies in predictions for the electron–positron bound state (positronium

Production of antihydrogen atoms by 6 keV antiprotons through a positronium cloud

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023
We report on the first production of an antihydrogen beam by charge exchange of 6.1 keV antiprotons with a cloud of positronium in the GBAR experiment at CERN.

An interacting fermion-antifermion pair in the spacetime background generated by static cosmic string

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2020
We consider a general relativistic fermion antifermion pair that they interact via an attractive Coulomb type interparticle interaction potential in the 2+1 dimensional spacetime background spanned by cosmic string. By performing an exact solution of the

Positronium Confined in Nanocavities: The Role of Electron Exchange Correlations

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2021
Positronium atoms (Ps) are commonly employed as a probe to characterize nanometric or subnanometric voids or vacancies in nonmetallic materials, where Ps can end up confined.

An energy-tunable positronium beam produced via photodetachment of positronium negative ions and its applications

open access: yes, 2021
Positronium is a bound state of one electron and one positron. It can be seen as the lightest neutral 'atom'. It can also be seen as a neutralized electron or a neutralized positron.

Comparison of the free volume sizes and shapes determined from crystallographic and PALS data

open access: yesNukleonika, 2015
Two different classes of molecular crystals were investigated. The first group was benzenediols, which are characterized by the same chemical composition but a different organization of their crystallographic structures; all of the compounds from this ...

Positronia’ Clouds in Universe

open access: yesUniverse, 2021
The intense emission of 511 keV photons from the Galactic center and within terrestrial thunderstorms is attributed to the formation of parapositronia clouds.

Quantum suppression of antihydrogen formation in positronium-antiproton scattering

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
The intriguing behaviour of positronium scattering has its role in antimatter studies. Here the authors have predicted the quantum suppression of the cross-section for antihydrogen formation in positronium scattering with antiprotons, by including the ...

Positronium block function, and trapping of positronium in vacancies, in ice [PDF]

open access: yes, 1977
Positron annihilation techniques (PAT) were used to study the behaviour of positronium (Ps) in pure H,0 and D-0 ice in the temperature interval -185 < t < 2°C. At temperatures below roughly -100°C, the linear-slit angular correlation curves consisted of a broad component (fwhm = 10.5 mrad), resulting from free positron and Ps pick-off ...
