Searches for discrete symmetries violation in ortho-positronium decay using the J-PET detector
In this paper, we present prospects for using the Jagiellonian positron emission tomograph (J-PET) detector to search for discrete symmetries violations in a purely leptonic system of the positronium atom.

Positronium Formation and Decay in Organic Scintillators for Neutrino Detection
The detection of electron anti-neutrinos is generally carried out by searching for the coincidence of the reaction products, neutron and positron, in liquid scintillators.

Positronium formation at 4H SiC(0001) surfaces
Positronium formation at 4H SiC(0001) surfaces were investigated upon the removal of natural oxide layers by hydrofluoric acid etching and heat treatment at 1000 K in ultra-high vacuum.

The polystyrene doped with 2,5-diphenyloxazole as a primary fluor and 2-(4-styrylphenyl)benzoxazole as a wavelength shifter prepared as a plastic scintillator was investigated using positronium probe in wide range of temperatures from 123 to 423 K. Three

ABSTRACT This study examines the relationship among the density, crystallinity, and moisture barrier properties of poly(l‐lactic acid) (PLLA), poly(d‐lactic acid) films (PDLA), and their PLLA/PDLA blends (85/15, 70/30, 50/50, and 30/70). Amorphous film samples display densities between 1,230 ± 6 and 1,243 ± 2 kg m−3, while semi‐crystalline samples show

Cold neutral atoms via charge exchange from excited state positronium: a proposal
We present a method for generating cold neutral atoms via charge exchange reactions between trapped ions and Rydberg positronium. The high charge exchange reaction cross section leads to efficient neutralisation of the ions and since the positronium-ion ...

PDMS Membrane Using Phenyl as Rigid Molecular Spacer for Phenol Recovery
ABSTRACT Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is extensively utilized for the recovery of bio‐alcohols, but it encounters significant obstacles in volatile organic compounds (VOCs) removal, because of the narrow size for molecules diffusion. In this work, we designed a high‐efficiency diffusion channel by introducing phenyl as a spacer into PDMS chains.

Free Volume Space of Polymers as a New Functional Nanospace: Synthesis of Guest Polymers
A new functional nanospace has been found in conventional synthetic resins and rubbers. Free volume, nanoscale pore among polymer chains, is used as a reaction field for synthesis of conductive polymers. Functional composites with enhanced performances, such as mechanical, gas barrier, and conductive properties, are developed by the infiltration of the

Positronium lifetime in polymers [PDF]
A model describing the relationship between the orthopositronium lifetime and the volume of a void, located in a synthetic zeolite, is analyzed. Our idea, which allows us to take into account the effects of temperature, comprises the introduction of a non-Hermitian term in the Hamiltonian, which accounts for the annihilation of the orthopositronium ...
