Journal ArticleDOI
A new equilibrium effect in positron trapping in metals
TL;DR: The equilibrium lineshape for positrons annihilating in Cd shows an anomalous temperature dependence which complicates analysis for vacancy formation energies as discussed by the authors, which is tentatively identified as trapping by transient dilatations, probably occurs in all metals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vacancy formation energies from positron trapping measurements
TL;DR: The threshold temperature at which thermally generated vacancies produce measurable positron trapping is a linear function of the energy of self-diffusion as mentioned in this paper, and a measurement ofTt leads directly to a determination of the latter.
Journal ArticleDOI
Some temperature effects on positron annihilation in metals
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the correlation of gamma rays from two-quantum positron annihilation in seven metals: zinc, cadmium, indium, lead, tin, aluminum, and bismuth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Radionuclide emitters for positron-annihilation studies of condensed matter
TL;DR: In this paper, the positron lifetime and annihilation gammaray energy spectra with a variety of radionuclide emitters are reported and the results demonstrate quantitatively the superiority of the high-energy emitters 68 Ge/68 Ga and 44 Ti/44 Sc over the other available sources.
Journal ArticleDOI
A coincidence technique for study of Ge(Li) detector profiles
TL;DR: In this paper, the profile of a Ge(Li) X ray detector housed within a conventional cryostat was studied and the depletion depth in the central region was measured as 5.3±0.1 mm, yielding the detection efficiency for collimated beam measurements of K conversion coefficients.
