Opis:
The influence of the positron distribution on the electron-positron (e-p) momentum densities (MDs) is studied in terms of the l (l = s, p, d, f) character of the initial electronic state. The effect of the positron is discussed for momenta in the extended and reduced zone scheme on the example of Al (simple metal), Cu (metal with almost filled d shell), and Cr (transition metal). Present result indicates a weak sensitivity of the e-p MD inside the central Fermi surface to the positron charge density for the delocalized s and p electrons. In the case of d states, the effect of the positron on the relevant contribution to the e-p MD directly reflects the degree of localization of d electrons in the electron density of states.

Opis:
Positrons thermalized near the sample boundary (as well as Ps atoms formed in the sample) can reach the boundary as a result of diffusive movement. Observations of such effects as positron reemission or positron surface trapping as well as positronium emission allow one to calculate respective diffusion lengths. From the presented analysis it follows that some models used in such calculations give quite wrong results.

Opis:
The Low Energy Positron Toroidal Accumulator (LEPTA) at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR) proposed for generation of positronium in flight has been adopted for positron annihilation spectroscopy (PAS). The positron injector generates continuous slow positron beam with positron energy range between 50 eV and 35 keV. The radioactive 22Na isotope is used. In distinction to popular tungsten foil, here the solid neon is used as moderator. It allows to obtain the beam intensity of about 105 e+/s width energy spectrum characterized by full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 3.4 eV and a tail to lower energies of about 30 eV. The paper covers the characteristic of variable energy positron beam at the LEPTA facility: parameters, the rule of moderation, scheme of injector, and transportation of positrons into the sample chamber. Recent status of the project and its development in the field of PAS is discussed. As an example, the measurement of the positron diffusion length in pure iron is demonstrated.

Positron annihilation studies of liquid crystals are reviewed with particular reference to thermotropic liquid crystals with rod-like molecules. The studies of compounds exhibiting smectic A or smectic E phases indicate that local arrangement of dipole molecules play an important role because high electron density at the end group of molecules can influence substantially formation and annihilation of positronium. The obtained ortho-positronium lifetimes in these phases can be explained by antiparallel pairing of molecules in case of the smectic A phase or a structure with a nanosegregation of alkyl chains and others parts of molecules into sublayers and liquid-like state of alkyl chains in case of the smectic E phase.

Opis:
Positron annihilation spectroscopy is often performed using radioactive sources for bulk measurements or positron beams for depth resolved measurements. Both have many advantages and great capabilities for a variety of applications. In the recent history, we have shown that positron annihilation spectroscopy can be carried out directly using high energy photons without the need for positron source or positron beam. This approach brings unique capabilities for some specific applications and promotes the use of positron annihilation spectroscopy in new areas of materials science and probably in industrial applications. Some of the important applications include developing new nondestructive highly penetrating sensitive probe for structural and engineering materials. It can also greatly advance positron applications in bulk semiconductors, electronic and photonic materials as well as in polymers, ceramics, and liquids. The recently developed γ-induced positron spectroscopy in HZDR in Dresden provides an example of an excellent facility for many of these applications. When incorporated with pulsed accelerators, γ-induced positron annihilation spectroscopy may trigger novel studies of transient states in matter and explore several solid-state processes that take place on short time scale. In this article I will review the history and development of the technique and its incorporation in a wide range of accelerators including table top electron accelerators, pulsed electron accelerators, and Van de Graaff accelerators. Then I will introduce a design for a new γ-induced positron annihilation spectroscopy facility based on using small nuclear research reactors or neutron generators. The paper presents all the possible approaches for γ-induced positron annihilation spectroscopy and discusses its potential and limitations to guide the efforts in further development of the technique and illustrate the unique aspects that the technique can bring to positron science and applications.

Opis:
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. The resulting intensity distributions of ortho-positronium (o-Ps) lifetimes are interpreted in terms of the extended Tao-Eldrup (ETE) model, which provides the dependence between the o-Ps lifetime and pore size. Additionally, the relation between the intensity of an o-Ps component and the pore volume allows obtaining pore size distribution (PSD). The value of the empirical parameter Δ, which is dependent on material, can be estimated from the temperature dependence of an o-Ps lifetime. The most unique feature of PP among other techniques that allow determination of PSDs is its ability to perform measurements in almost any conditions. This makes this method suitable for various in situ studies. In this review article, both the capabilities and the limitations of PP are discussed. The methods to overcome some of the limitations are presented.

An approach based on Carbotte, Salvadori and Chiba two-body schemes for calculation of electron-positron (e-p) momentum densities ro(p) for core electrons in solids is developed. The approach allows to avoid such common approximations as the local density approximation (LDA) etc. in determination of ro(p) of deeper atomic shells and reduces the contribution to ro(p) for higher momenta. Thus, the final calculations of the Doppler spectra of annihilation radiation yield lower values for greater momenta than those obtained within the LDA scheme. The exemplary calculations for Al are presented.

Opis:
MCM-41 silica materials modified by iron incorporation in the stage of its synthesis were investigated. The aim of the studies was determination of the nature of iron species and the influence of its content on the structural changes of materials and following the changes of their properties. For this purpose, the N2 sorption/desorption method and positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS) were used. Disappearance of the longest-lived ortho-positronium (o-Ps) component (tau5) present in the PALS spectra of the initial MCM-41 material in the spectra of Fe-modified MCM-41 measured in vacuum is a result of a strong chemical o-Ps quenching and/or the Ps inhibition mechanism. Filling of pores by air or N2 at ambient pressure causes reappearance of the (tau5) component with lifetime shortened in comparison to that observed in vacuum for pure MCM-41 to the extent which can be explained by usual paramagnetic quenching in air. In contrary to the tendency observed for (tau5) lifetime which is practically independent of Fe content, the relevant intensity I5 monotonically decreases. This fact suggests that only inhibition of Ps formation occurs for the samples in air. Observed anti-quenching effect of air seems to be a result of competition of two processes : neutralization of surface active centres acting as inhibitors and considerably weaker paramagnetic quenching by O2 molecules.

The calculations of the influence of the self-energy effects on the electron-positron (e-p) enhancement factors and the e-p momentum distributions are presented. The approach bases on the novel formulation of the Bethe- -Goldstone (B-G) equation for the positron in an electron gas where the scattering of the electrons into the states below the Fermi surface due to the self-energy effects is allowed. This equation has been solved and the corresponding e-p enhancement factors and momentum distributions have been found. The agreement between the absolute values of the theoretical calculations and experimental data has improved noticeably.

Opis:
In studies of several interesting materials by positron annihilation technique the theoretical values of positron lifetimes in bulk and defected elements are useful. These lifetimes are often calculated within the GGA approximation. In this approximation the results of Arponen and Pajanne calculations for the positron in an electron gas are used. It is known, however, that when using the LDA approximation for the calculations of positron lifetime in real metals, Arponen and Pajanne values yield worse agreement with experimental data than the results obtained on the basis of PHNC formalism. Therefore, in this paper the appropriate PHNC formulas are incorporated into the GGA approximation and the calculations have been performed for some metals: bulk as well as containing monovacancies. The comparison of the lifetimes found in this way to the ones based on the previous method is promising for the applicability of the new algorithm.

The nano-porosity structure of several non-crystalline opal samples of different origin was investigated with positronium atoms. The obtained data show that the structure depends on both the kind of opal (precious, common or hyalite) as well as the place of its creation (sedimentary or volcanic rocks). The sizes of the pores "seen" by positronium atoms are relatively small, not greater than about 1 nm for all studied samples which may suggest that the pores are located inside the silica matter from which the samples are made. Moreover, the pores detected in the "sedimentary" precious opals are smaller and have less diverse sizes than those found in 'sedimentary" common opals and "volcanic' precious opals.

Opis:
The positron-irradiation effect on polycarbonate during a positron-annihilation lifetime spectroscopy experiment was investigated using different intensities of $\text{}^{22}$Na positron sources andγ-irradiated samples. The decrease in I$\text{}_{3}$ was larger for a larger intensity of positron sources. In the case of a weak source (≈ 140 kBq), I$\text{}_{3}$ did not change with the elapsed time for non-irradiated samples. However, for 1 MGy irradiated samples, I$\text{}_{3}$ measured with the weak source increased with the elapsed time. This can be attributed to a decrease in the radicals induced in the irradiated samples by γ-irradiation. In order to explain the change in I$\text{}_{3}$ measured at room and liquid-nitrogen temperatures, several effects, such as radicals, cross-linking, structure change, and charging, need to be considered. Also, it is difficult to explain the change in I$\text{}_{3}$ using only one of these effects.

All the registered positron lifetime spectra consist of two components. For corroded samples, the intensities of the two components as well as the corresponding values of the mean positron lifetime, differ from those for uncorroded material. The corrosion-induced changes in the positron annihilation parameters depend on the corrosion environment (solution or vapour) and on the presence and direction of external magnetic field.

Opis:
Positron annihilation spectroscopy (PAS) has been used to study the annealing behavior of cold rolled Fe – 21 wt% Mn steel with 0.05 wt% C. After the initial annealing of defects shown by Doppler broadening of the annihilation line, a slight increase in the annihilation line shape parameter, i.e., the so-called S parameter and then its decrease in the temperature range between 225◦C and 450◦C indicates generation of new defects and their subsequent annealing. This temperature range coincides with X-ray diffraction measurements, which indicate reversion of deformation-induced ε-martensite. However, for annealing in this temperature range with slow cooling of the sample, the formation of ferrite already starts. The results are compared with our previous results for deformed austenitic stainless steel 1.4301 (EN) where only reversion of deformation-induced α'-martensite was detected.

The theoretical results of backscattering probability and mean penetration depth are compared with other published [1, 3, 4, 10, 11, 13].

Theoretical studies of the positron implantation profiles in the layered samples are presented. Simulations performed using a GEANT4 tool kit revealed accumulation of positrons in denser layer embedded by less dens environment. This effect is significant for implantation profiles of slow positrons formed in a beam. Nevertheless, it is also present in conventional experiments, where positrons are emitted from radioactive nuclei. In some cases the diffusion process, which follows the implantation and thermalization processes, can smear this effect. However, defects on the interfaces or differences in the positron affinity can sustain it.

Opis:
Some applications of controlled-energy positron beams in material studies are discussed. In porous organic polysilicates, measurements of 3γ annihilation by Doppler broadening (DB) method at the Trento University allowed to trace pore closing and filling by water vapor. In silicon coimplanted by He+ and H+, DB data combined with positron lifetime measurements at the München pulsed positron beam allowed to explain Si blistering. Presently measured samples of W for applications in thermonuclear reactors, irradiated by W+ and electrons, show vast changes of positron lifetimes, indicating complex dynamics of defects.

Opis:
In the present work, photoluminescence and Doppler broadening depth-resolved positron annihilation spectroscopy was performed on pure zirconia nanopowders. Zirconia nanopowders were grown by a hydrothermal microwave-driven process followed by annealing in oxygen atmosphere. Photoluminescence under 274 nm wavelength excitation from a 150 W high-pressure Xe exhibits similar spectra, in the region from 320 to 820 nm, although its intensity depends on the annealing. Positron annihilation Doppler-broadening spectra show low values of the normalized S-parameter, varying little with the depth, from 0.495 on the surface to 0.47-0.49 in bulk. Both high the annealing temperature and oxygen concentrations, lead to low bulk S-values. The ortho-positronium (o-Ps) fraction is about 10-11% for all samples on the surface, whereas it is reduced to 7-8% in the bulk for samples annealed at 700°C and 5-6% for samples annealed at 800°C. Both photoluminescence (PL) and positron studies show the presence of defects in all samples. The o-Ps signal suggests a high porosity of samples, particularly at a depth down to 10 nm.

Opis:
This work draws attention to the fact that by measuring electronic structure via angular correlation of positron radiation (ACAR) and Compton scattering experiments one probes electron densities in the extended momentum space, directly related to the electron Bloch wave functions. Presenting some examples of electron densities in the extended and reduced momentum spaces, it is demonstrated what kind of information concerning the electronic structure can be obtained depending on the considered space. It is also shown how the knowledge of the symmetry selection rules allows to separate various Fermi surfaces and establish Fermi momenta.

Opis:
To interpret positron annihilation data in solids in terms of the electron momentum density, both the electron-positron interaction and positron distribution have to be considered explicitly. In the present work the influence of the shape of the positron wave function on the calculated electron-positron momentum density in elemental SiC is discussed. It is shown that the form of the positron distribution in the Wigner-Seitz cell has a considerable effect on the resulting annihilation characteristics. Calculations were performed for SiC of 3C diamond structure within the linear muffin-tin orbital-atomic spheres approximation method.

Positron lifetime spectra and electrical resistivity of the vanadium-hydrogen systems with hydrogen concentration ranging from 0 to 0.29 at.H/at.V have been investigated. The range of hydrogen concentrations under investigation included the single alfa phase and a mixture of the alfa and beta phases of V-H system. The registered positron lifetime spectra were analysed by decomposition into two components. A distinct change in the annihilation parameters has been found after exceeding the boundary concentration of hydrogen in vanadium corresponding to the phase transition alfa (alfa+ beta). Correlation of changes in the parameters of the positron lifetime spectrum and in the electrical resistivity resulting from the changes in hydrogen concentration, has been revealed.

Opis:
Positron annihilation lifetime measurements were conducted in situ while two gasses (nitrogen and oxygen, respectively) were introduced into the SBA-15 porous silica sample. Slow changes in lifetime spectra were observed during a long lasting gas interaction with the sample. Introduced gases slowly filled the free volumes, starting from the smallest ones, especially small micropores. In the presence of a gas, the rate of change of ortho-positronium (o-Ps) and unbound positron intensity was larger than the rate of change of lifetime. This suggests the existence of an additional process, which reduces the number of ortho-positronium atoms due to the interaction with the gas. Moreover, the process of filling pores with gas was slower than the process of emptying them while the gas was pumped out.

Opis:
Isochronal and isothermal annealing of stainless steel 1.4307 samples deformed by compression were investigated using Doppler broadening measurements of the annihilation line. We made an attempt to describe the obtained dependencies in terms of vacancy migration and sinking to the grain boundaries. The model assumed spherical grains with a homogeneous initial distribution of vacancies. The model was capable of following the isochronal annealing data quite accurately. However, the obtained activation energy of vacancy migration equal to 0.44 plus or minus 0.05 eV seemed too low. The isothermal annealing dependency was reproduced less precisely. The reason for this may be the presence of the alfa'-martensite particles in the samples, which can introduce additional defects seen by positrons in the temperature range in which the martensite reversion takes place.

Composites made of bioactive glasses and resorbable polymers are promising biomaterials for bone tissue regeneration. In this study several types of composites produced from bioactive glasses, differing in chemical composition (A2 and S2) and poly(glycolide-co-lactide) (PGLA) were obtained. The resulting composite materials were investigated with positron lifetime spectroscopy and Doppler broadening of annihilation line. It was found that for the composites made of S2 bioglass the intensity of the third positron lifetime component coming from the positronium (Ps) annihilation decreased with increasing in volume fraction of bioglass particles exhibiting behaviour characteristic of microcomposites. For the composites produced from A2 bioglass, such a dependence was not found. The differences obtained may be connected with chemical composition of the bioglass and/or its crystallinity.

The implantation profile of positrons emitted from 22Na into a stack of aluminum and silver foils is the subject of the presented report. The characteristic dimple in the profile behind the Ag foil was detected. This effect arises from the differences in the linear absorption coefficient of aluminum and silver. The good agreement between the theoretical profile obtained within the multiscattering model and experimental one was achieved. The observed phenomenon can affect the positron annihilation characteristics measured for the inhomogeneous samples.

Additionally, acoustic (sound speed, density and compressibility) experiments were done in aqueous beta-cyclodextrin and tert-butanol systems and in a three-component water-beta-cyclodextrin-tert-butanol system. The results show that in aqueous solution cyclodextrin does not form inclusive complexes with alcohol, while solid sugar-alcohol mixtures undergo slow changes in time, most probably caused by exchange of guest between interior and exterior of the host molecule.

The experimental technique based on scanning of positron implantation profile, hereafter referred to as the DSIP is used for the determination of linear absorption coefficient for positrons emitted from a 48V source into water. This coefficient is equal to 1/(299š62) mi m–1. The determined value is in agreement with the one obtained from the computer simulations using the well known EGS nrc 4.0 and GEANT4 codes. The experimental technique was used for the determination of linear absorption coefficients for 48V positrons in materials of biological origin. The presented data can be useful for PET studies because of similarities of the 18F and 48V positron implantation profiles.

In this paper, we present a numerical investigation about the question how sensitively Fourier coefficients of the positron wave function ψ$\text{}_{+}$ react to different (and not too strong) changes of ψ$\text{}_{+}$. In order to obtain general information about this problem, we studied this sensitivity for several bcc and fcc metals and for different models of the positron wave function. Summarizing our results, we can say that this sensitivity is generally small (or at least moderate) for Fourier coefficients belonging to reciprocal lattice vectors G which lie nearest to the centre of the momentum space. For the outer vectors G, the amount of this sensitivity is strongly dependent on the crystal structure of the metal and on the special like of the change of the positron wave function.

The microhardness increases with an increase in the burnishing force and with a decrease in the feed. The comparison of various methods of analysis of positron annihilation lifetime (PAL) spectra allowed identification of two components, which are related to solute-vacancy complexes and vacancy clusters, respectively. It was found that the increase in microhardness was related to the increase in the concentration of vacancy clusters.

Two polyesters, i.e. an aromatic one: poly(butylene terephthalate) – PBT and an aliphatic one: poly(ĺ- -caprolactone) – PCL were mixed in melt to obtain a biodegradable product. DSC, 1H NMR, SEM, WAXS, SAXS, BOD and PALS measurements were performed to study the homopolymers as well as their physical blend and copolyesters. The latter were obtained due to the transesterification reaction. Ortho-positronium (o-Ps) annihilation lifetimes were used to create the distributions of free volume. The progressive changes in probability density function of free volume, i.e. increase in large free volume holes contribution to the total free volume, appearing when going from the homopolymers to the blend and then to the copolyesters reflect the influence of: the addition of aliphatic polyester, the weight fraction of it in the composition and transesterification. The higher contribution of larger free volume holes corresponds well with the reduced crystallinity of compositions revealed in X-ray diffraction and the worsening of the regularity of structure of the macromolecules involved in formation of crystals, deduced from the 1H NMR.

Distinct changes in positron lifetime spectra allowed the monitoring of alterations in the sample structure. The most likely origin of the particular components present in the spectra was able to be proposed from these data.

Opis:
The subject of investigation were the samples obtained by impregnation of MCM-41 template with an aqueous solution prepared from Fe(NO3)3ź9H2O. As a result of such a procedure, iron oxides deposits on MCM-41 were formed. The Mössbauer studies revealed an occurrence of Fe3O4 nanocrystallites in the both ferri- and superparamagnetic states. Almost 80% small particles exist in a paramagnetic state. The positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS) spectra were measured in air or in vacuum. The long-lived ortho-positronium (o-Ps) components and their intensities are time dependent due to air molecules interaction with iron oxide nanocrystallites and silica walls surfaces. The adsorption of air on the nanocrystallites surface causes a total screening of their surface and a raise of the o-Ps lifetime values. Observed anti-quenching effect is a result of competition of two phenomena: practically switching off a pick-off mechanism related to interaction of o-Ps with magnetite nanoparticles and considerably weaker usual quenching by paramagnetic oxygen molecules.

Opis:
Positrons lifetimes were measured in medical substances of insulin (human and animal), differing as far as the degree of purity and time of their activity in the organism are concerned. In all of the cases the spectrum of positron lifetime was distributed into three components, with the long-life component ranging from 1.8 to 2.08 ns and the intensity taking on values from 18 to 24%. Making use of Tao-Eldrup model, the average radius of the free volume, in which o-Ps annihilated, and the degree of filling in the volume were determined. It was found that the value of the long-life component for human insulin is higher than that of animal insulin. Moreover, the value of this component clearly depends on the manner of purification of the insulin. It was also noticed that there occurs a correlation between the value of this component and the time after which it begins to be active in the organism, as well as the total time of its activity.

Opis:
Slow positron annihilation spectroscopy, contact angle and scanning electron microscope (SEM) were employed to investigate the surface polarity and morphologies as functions of aging time in acrylic coatings during UV-a irradiation. The S parameter plots of each exposed sample are lower than that of the virgin sample in the whole range of E. The S parameter plots become lower as the exposing longer time, indicated that the irradiation generated more polar groups and increased the oxidation layer depth. Combined with surface morphology and the surface energy of acrylic coating, the variation of contact angle, and surface energy, polar component and dispersive component is related with surface polarity and morphologies.

Opis:
We explore the interrelationships between the X-ray diffraction patterns, the photoluminescence spectra and the positron lifetimes obtained from circular pellets composed of commercial ZnO nanoparticles. The experimental results are studied as a function of thermal treatment at different temperatures. X-ray diffractograms reveal the temperature- independent wurtzite phase structure of nanocrystals and show huge enlargement of ZnO grains after annealing at temperatures higher than 700 centigrade. Photoluminescence measurements exhibit two emission bands : a near band edge emission in UV (small tilde 378 nm) and a defect-related broad visible peak with a maximum in the green region ( small tilde 502 nm). The significant enhancement of the green emission at the expense of UV luminescence is observed after sample sintering at 800 and 1000 centigrade. The positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS) is applied in order to study the thermally induced evolution of defects. The lifetime components show a step-like dependence on the thermal treatment, but do not follow exactly the variation in crystallographic phases and only vaguely follow differences in photoluminescence. The positron data indicate therefore some additional structural and/or defect changes. The possible origin of green luminescence from ZnO pellets is discussed.

Opis:
Positron lifetime spectra as well as one-dimensional angular correlations of positron annihilation radiation were measured at room temperature for samples of rhyolitic obsidian coming from Iceland, Italy and Armenia. The samples were of different age. One specimen (originating from Iceland) was relatively young, formed in 1980. The others were much older, collected during the 19th century. It was found that the linear dimensions of pores trapping the positronium atoms before their decay as well as the pore concentration in all old obsidians are almost the same independently of the place of their formation. Simultaneously the concentration of the pores in the young sample is about five times lower than in the old specimens. Basing on the result it is suggested to extend the study in order to find out if positron annihilation can be used for the investigation of the age of the volcanic accumulations containing obsidian.

It is well known that the positron trapping rate obtained from positron lifetime measurements depends upon defect concentrations and trapping efficiency. If a distribution of open volume defects exists, a distribution of trapping efficiency also could be present. As an example, the calculation of trapping efficiency as a function of radius of defects in Al is presented. The correct explanation of defect size distribution obtained by positron lifetime measurements needs to introduce some additional assumptions about trapping efficiency.

Opis:
Positron lifetime spectra were measured for a series of odd-numbered liquid n-alkanes (C7H16, C9H20, C13H28 and C19H40) in a broad range of temperature. According to the “bubble model” the ortho-positronium (o-Ps) lifetime is determined by surface tension. Bubble radius was calculated using the Tao-Eldrup model and compared to the radius expected from the surface tension of liquid. The radii are not identical, their difference rises with temperature. If one assumes the difference of radii as constant, the o-Ps lifetime calculated from the Tao-Eldrup model rises faster than the experimental one. The distinct rise of the difference of radii has no physical explanation in the accepted o-Ps annihilation model. This effect can be the result of radiation chemistry processes not taken into account so far in the bubble model.

It is found that o-Ps lifetime τ₃ and the corresponding intensity I₃ in Nylon12/PVA decrease with increase of the PVA content. Being treated in ScCO₂ at 50°C and 20 MPa for 1 h, the free volume holes in Nylon12/PVA blends expand to different extents depending on the weight ratio of PVA. After releasing of CO₂, the free volume size decreases as a function of the elapsed time due to the molecular relaxation, and the relaxation time constant depends on the content of PVA in the blends.

We tried to use LSO for positron annihilation lifetime and age-momentum correlation measurements because the high efficiency is needed to reduce the positron irradiation effect during measurements. The high efficiency with reasonable time resolution was successfully obtained by use of the dynode signals from photomultiplier tubes.

Opis:
The photo-degradation progress of epoxy coating and the effect of ultraviolet absorber under UV-B irradiation have been investigated in slow positron beam and by the Fourier transform infrared spectrometer. After 120 h of irradiation, the value of S parameter in sample bulk is reduced while compared with the virgin sample. The result is mostly due to post-cure process happening in this initial irradiation stage. As the irradiation time increases to 360 h, the S parameter decreases sharply. This is due to the growth of carbonyl group and the generation of free radical. After 528 h or longer time of irradiation, a very low S value was obtained near sample surface, indicating the formation of a dead surface layer. Positron results also reveal that the addition of ultraviolet absorber suppresses the development of the dead layer after long-term UV-B irradiation. Ultraviolet absorber has a suppressing effect on generation of polar groups towards sample bulk. The addition of ultraviolet absorber is a key factor that affects the photo-degradation of epoxy coating.

The electron and positron properties of the $UIr_2Zn_{20}$ compound of the Fd-3m cage-type crystal structure are studied. The characteristics for the perfect crystal are compared with their counterparts in the elements containing Ir and Zn vacancy. The presence of the vacancy hardly influences the electron charge density around individual atoms. In contrast to electrons, the positron is strongly localized inside the vacancy and the transfer of positron charge is observed. The positron lifetime, τ, appears to be strongly sensitive to the presence and type of the vacancy. Furthermore, this parameter calculated for the perfect crystal is very close to the experimental value for Zn. Here the theoretical values of τ depend on the approach applied to the electron positron (e-p) correlations.

The data were used for estimation of positronium characteristics in the specimens. The characteristics were analysed in terms of parameters of pores trapping the positronium atoms before their decay. In the analysis two models of the traps were taken into account, i.e. the square potential wells of spherical symmetry with barriers of finite and infinite heights. It was found that the linear dimensions of the pores resulting from these two-trap models are almost the same and they are of the order of 1 nm.

For the studied metals: Mg, Al, the obtained values of mean penetration depth coincide well with those which can be calculated using the mathematical formula commonly used but for Si and S the discrepancy has been observed similarly like for polymers.

Calculations of the local annihilation rate of positrons in inhomogeneous media have been recently performed. However, the problem was solved only for the positron at the center of the inhomogeneity. This allowed to benefit of the spherical symmetry of the problem. Since the positron is usually an itinerant particle, it is necessary in practical applications to perform computations for every possible coordinates of this particle. In the present work local annihilation rates were obtained for noncentral coordinates of the positron.

It turns out that the two latter models fit to the experimental data with the same excellent quality, in spite of the fact that in both models the ratio of intensities related to para-positronium and ortho-positronium was constrained to be as 1:3.

The paper presents positron lifetime studies of the subsurface region of the aluminium cast AK64 alloy containing silicon as a main alloying element after sliding against stainless steel in the pin-on-disc tester. The subsurface zone of the depth exceeding 150μm has been detected. The scanning electron microscopy revealed only the plastically deformed region occurring at the depth up to ca. 50μm and cracks at the depth less than 30μm. The comparison with the results obtained for the AK12 alloy containing almost a twice higher amount of silicon demonstrates the influence of the hard silicon rich particles on the total depth of the subsurface zone. A higher amount of hard particle prevents to some extend the propagation of defects inside the material.

This work describes a digital positron-lifetime spectrometer based on two ultrafast digitizers. Performance of the digital spectrometer in conditions of a routine measurement is compared with an analogue setup connected to the same detectors. It was found that engagement of the digital setup leads to an improvement of timing resolution (FWHM for $\text{}^{22}Na$) from 169 ps for the traditional analogue setup to 146 ps for the digital setup. The coincidence count rate for 1.2 MBq $\text{}^{22}Na$ source is 75-80 coinc./s for both configurations. These results clearly demonstrate the advantages of the digital timing over the traditional analogue setup.

Modified effective range theory in analytical form is used to extrapolate elastic cross-sections down to thermal energies for positron scattering from five atomic and molecular targets including Ar, $H_2$, $N_2$, $C_6H_6$ (benzene) and $C_6H_{12}$ (c-hexane). The derived scattering parameters are then used to estimate the annihilation rates for chosen elements using a simple formula by Gribakin. We show that a combination of two simple models has a potential for accurate parameterization of coefficients describing the interaction of thermal positrons with non-polar targets of low polarizability such as Ar and $N_2$.

Positron lifetime spectra in long-chain alkanes were measured at various wavelengths of light illuminating the samples as a function of temperature, storage time. It was found that in n-alkanes with carbon chain longer than 30 atoms two kinds of electron traps exist; the depth of shallower of them is less than 0.52 eV. They are discharged already at a temperature of 120 K.

Opis:
Alongside surgery, radiation therapy remains the mainstay of treatment for head and neck cancers.  Because the head and neck contain a number of critically important structures, it is crucial to try to curtail the adverse effects of radiation therapy by increasing its precision. Such precise radiation techniques include the three-dimensional conformal as well as highly conformal radiotherapy. The latter includes, for instance, intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), stereotactic radiation, and proton-beam therapy. All of the above-mentioned techniques are available in Poland and give the opportunity of a more aggressive treatment that lead to improved outcomes, curtailment of adverse effects, and by that, a better quality of life.

Opis:
Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is a method for determining biochemical and physiological processes in vivo in a quantitative manner. The most commonly used radionuclides are 11C, 13N, 15O and 18F, with respective half-lives of approximately 20 min, 10 min, 2 min, and 110 min. 18F labeled FDG (fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose) is now the most frequently used radiopharmaceutical and finds its application prominently in the field of oncology. Originally, the production of these radionuclides was performed with the existing accelerators, designed for nuclear physics, but with increasing interest in the PET methodology specially designed PET-production cyclotrons became available. The nuclear reactions involved are (p,n), (d,n), (p,a) and (d,a) and the thresholds for the nuclear reactions involved are 5 to 6 MeV. Based on these values and on other parameters, a proton 15 to 20 MeV cyclotron is often chosen. Since the half-life of a radionuclide limits the production time, the maximum beam current is an important parameter, together with the target construction, for the ultimate yield obtainable. In the development of special PET production cyclotrons, attention has also been paid to improve the extraction efficiency and the possibility of multiple extractions by designing negative ion cyclotrons. Commercial cyclotrons can often be acquired as an easy to operate integrated radionuclide production unit including targetry and some units. Regional FDG factories are nowadays being created to fulfil the demand for PET radiopharmaceutics. The possible choices in commercially available cyclotrons for the production of PET radionuclides will be discussed.

The purpose of the paper is to point at the importance of some detailed studies of electron-positron scattering in real metals using wave functions obtained from band structure calculations. In this work some preliminary investigations of the matrix elements of electron-positron scattering, e.g. the transitions from occupied to non-occupied states close to the Fermi surface are presented. One can observe that for s → s transitions of the positron (s, p are orbital quantum numbers) electrons do not change their orbital quantum numbers but for s → p transitions of the positron, electron quantum numbers change by unity.

Opis:
The electron-positron interaction greatly complicates the interpretation of positron annihilation data. The two-detector Doppler measurements of Mijnarends et al. as well as our theoretical calculations point at the conclusion that the local density approximation to e$\text{}^{+}$-e$\text{}^{-}$ interaction is a good way of treating this problem in real metals, at least the simplest ones. This shows that e$\text{}^{+}$-e$\text{}^{-}$ interaction in an electron gas is the key to understanding this phenomenon also in inhomogeneous systems. On the basis of dozens of experiments one comes to the conclusion that the well known formula of Boroński and Nieminen for the electron accumulation on the positron in jellium describes the best the positron lifetimes in metals. However, it is based on the calculations of Lantto which start from a physically oversimplified trial function. The results of Arponen and Pajanne, of Rubaszek and Stachowiak, and of Stachowiak and Lach lead to too short positron lifetimes in spite of using less controversial assumptions. The discrepancy is of the order of 8 to 15% for r$\text{}_{s}$=2. This shows that we still do not fully understand e$\text{}^{+}$-e$\text{}^{-}$ interaction even in an electron gas.

The samples were deformed by elongation for different deformation degrees. The S and W parameters as a function of deformation degree of the sample were determined. It was found that the dynamics of the dislocations and vacancy generation during the sliding of some crystallographic planes, depends on the crystallographic direction.

The angular correlations of annihilation radiation for the alloy appeared to be more similar to the one for NaI than it should be expected from the content of NaI in the alloy. The result can be easily explained by assuming that NaI/NaF interface acts directionally on positron diffusion movement.

Opis:
One of the methods of determining theoretical annihilation characteristics in real metals is the approximation called Bloch modified ladder approach. In this approach a Bethe-Goldstone type equation is solved with an effective electron-positron potential obtained previously for jellium of the corresponding electron density. If one wishes to include the dependence on the local electron density of the e$\text{}^{+}$-e$\text{}^{-}$ effective potential in this formalism, it is necessary to know this potential for jellium, for metallic and above metallic densities. A review of different proposed e$\text{}^{+}$-e$\text{}^{-}$ potentials is presented and their correctness is evaluated from the point of view of their application in a Bethe-Goldstone type formalism which is the jellium analogue of Bloch modified ladder approach.

Peak coincidence counting rate and positron lifetime spectra for deformed by cold-rolling, and annealed by four hours in the temperature 973 K, hydrogen free and hydrogenated PdCu with 23% Cu samples, in the temperature range from room temperature to about 720 K were measured. It was found that hydrogen improved to tempered samples creates defects that are annealed to the temperature about 525 K. In the cold-rolled up to deformation degree of 50% samples, hydrogen is trapped at defects, probably vacancies, forming H-V complexes, that become disappearing in the vicinity of the temperature at 350 K.

Positron affinities and deformation potentials are calculated in cubic bulk semiconductors using the density functional theory with the electron and positron energies in the local density approximation and generalized gradient approximation, respectively. In order to estimate these quantities, two different forms of the electron-positron correlation potential are used. Positron affinities calculated using these two correlation potentials differ by about 0.3 eV. Our calculated affinities in 3C-SiC are in better agreement with experiments than those obtained previously by another first principles method. In the present work the positron affinity in BN is found to be quite close to the one in diamond.

Positron annihilation in flight, when mainly positron contributes to the energy and momentum of the annihilating pair, is rarely observed in condensed matter due to its small probability. Additionally, this process does not manifest itself by any characteristic features, which would help in observation. Hence, our knowledge about that process is poor. In the paper we propose the new experimental method which allows us to detect this process. We applied the conventional positron lifetime spectrometer, which after changing photon energy ranges and layout of detectors was suitable for that detection. The first measurements allow us to estimate that in pure aluminum almost 4.76% of all implanted positrons from isotope source ^{22}Na annihilate in flight.

Opis:
Earlier theoretical studies, as well as recent calculations of positron annihilation rates in metals, show that some basic problems concerning electron-positron (e-p) interaction have not been solved satisfactorily, even for homogeneous media (the electron gas). In turn, the "computer experiments" e.g. quantum Monte Carlo simulations applied to these problems by several authors yielded only fragmentary, inaccurate and even incorrect results for smaller electron densities. It is shown in the present paper that the quantum Monte Carlo method may be useful in investigations of positron interactions with electrons. Reasonable annihilation rates have been obtained owing to appropriate construction of the trial function and taking into account the 3-particle correlations (i.e. dependence of the electron-electron (e-e) interaction on the distance from the positron). Moreover, the method of "exact determination" (without any fitting) of positron annihilation rates on the basis of the variational trial function was proposed. One also found the way of calculating the momentum dependent enhancement factors, the quantities not achievable within the Monte Carlo method until now.

Opis:
In the present paper two-body radiative recombination rate for the production of antihydrogen (H̅) in a merged beam of slow positrons (e$\text{}^{+}$) and antiprotons (p¯) is studied in the light of a two-step process, which consists of capture in an excited state of H̅ with subsequent decay to the ground state and emission of a photon. Computation is done using the field theory and the Coulomb gauge. Importance of the two-step radiative recombination process relative to the well-known spontaneous photorecombination process, on the two-body radiative recombination rate for antihydrogen formation, is discussed. The present result predicts higher contribution from the two-step radiative recombination process as compared to the spontaneous photorecombination process to the rate of cold antihydrogen formation with the relative collision energy below 0.01 Rydberg, near which experiments are being conducted. However, above 0.1 Rydberg the spontaneous photorecombination process dominates over the two-step radiative recombination process. The present result is valid, as well, for the formation of hydrogen atom due to collision between slow electron and proton.

Opis:
We present results of ab initio relativistic calculations on the elastic positron scattering from Kr and Ye atoms in the energy region below 10 eV. The approach employed was the relativistic polarized orbital approximation in which we tried to keep correctly orders of various contributions to positron-atom interaction potentials. In view of the serious disagreement between the present results and experimental data we conclude that the polarized orbital approximation even in its relativistic version is not able to provide reliable values of positron scattering cross-sections.

Opis:
The design and construction of a compact, magnetically guided slow positron beam is discussed. The system uses a 30 mCi $\text{}^{22}$Νa source. It consists of three main parts: (i) the source chamber with a tungsten foil transmission moderator and the extraction optics, (ii) the beam line with magnetic beam guidance, a bent tube for the separation of the fast positrons and the accelerator stage, (iii) the target chamber with the sample holder and the detector electronics. The energy of the incident positrons can be varied from 30 eV up to 50 keV. Furthermore source geometries, pre-acceleration, main acceleration sections and various magnetic induction profiles have been considered, such as (i) rectangular, conical and bent Wehnelt electrodes, (iii) pre-accelerator voltage shared over several electrodes, (iii) weak, strong, constant and z-dependent B-profiles, (iv) geometric options in the main accelerator region, (v) purely electrostatic and combined electric/magnetic fields. The beam is mainly designed for defect profile studies in ultra high vacuum conditions.

Positron lifetimes measurements in polyethylene were performed. Samples of the polyethylene were heated in the temperature range from 320 to 570 K. After cooling, the samples were used for the lifetime measurements in air at room temperature. A conventional fast-slow coincidence lifetime spectrometer was used for the measurements. Mean free volumes radii were calculated from the lifetime data.

Opis:
This paper presents positron lifetime studies of the subsurface region of AK12 aluminium alloy and Al$\text{}_{2}$O$\text{}_{3}$-particle-reinforced AK12 aluminium alloy composite after sliding against steel in the pin-on-disc machine. The defect depth profile detected in the AK12 alloy extended up to 300μm but for the composite AK12 the range of this profile was significantly shortened to less than 90μm. The positron lifetime dependence on depth evidences a steep gradient of defect concentration near the surface. The subsurface zones have been also examined using scanning electron microscopy.

Opis:
Nanoparticles embedded in a matrix can trap positrons under certain conditions. In such cases nanoparticles can be effectively studied by means of positron annihilation because positron annihilation characteristics contain information related to nanoparticles' electronic and atomic structure. Of great importance is to calculate the positron response from such nanoparticles. Then, nanoparticles can, in principle, be identified by comparing the measured and calculated positron annihilation response. For this purpose we present an efficient computational method based on the well-known atomic superposition technique. This method is explained in detail, justified on the basis of first principles calculations, and applied to Cu nanoparticles embedded in the Fe matrix.

Opis:
Theoretical data for positron scattering from a thin silicon film and semi-infinite silicon are presented as a function of incident and outgoing angles and energies. These theoretical data of the scattering processes of low energy positrons penetrating into silicon were performed by Monte Carlo simulation. The simulation is based on the use of different types of differential cross sections for individual elastic and inelastic scattering i) inelastic scattering; Gryzinski's excitation function to simulate the energy loss and Liljequist's model to calculate the inelastic scattering cross section, ii) elastic scattering; the screened Rutherford differential cross section with the spin-relativistic factor. In calculations on positron traversing matter, it is important to know the transmission through medium, their path lengths, and their energy and angular distribution through matter. The simulation results are well agreed with experiments.

Opis:
The influence of sandblasting on surface and subsurface of stainless steel is investigated using variable energy positron beam (VEP), positron annihilation spectroscopy (PAS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Samples of stainless steel were blasted using 110 μm particles of Al2O3 under different pressure and time duration. In the case of sandblasting for 90 s, the reduction of positron diffusion length depending on the applied pressure was observed. Sandblasting during 30 s leads only to the reduction of positron diffusion length to about 60 nm for all samples. Positron lifetimes close to 170 ps measured using positrons emitted directly from the source point to the presence of vacancies on the dislocation lines. SEM and AFM images show that surface roughness depends rather on pressure of sandblasting than time of exposition.

Opis:
A BaF$\text{}_{2}$ positron-lifetime spectrometer equipped with a coincidence system that represents a compromise between the traditional fast-fast and fast-slow arrangements is described. The main difference of the present configuration from both the fast-slow and fast-fast ones consists in use of a sum of the energy signals from the start and stop detectors to select the coincidence events. Quality of the spectrometer response function (≈ 150 ps FWHM for $\text{}^{22}$Na) is very close to that observed for our fast-slow configuration with the equivalent detectors but throughput of the present apparatus is increased almost by a factor of two. Moreover, the electronic scheme becomes less complicated, which has also a positive impact on its cost.

Positron annihilation was applied to measuring critical pore sizes in various materials. In recent years, positron annihilation with a variable-energy positron beam has emerged as a powerful tool for the investigation of porous thin films synthesized as low-k dielectrics, high performance gas sensor materials, and so on. This paper is a brief overview of recent progress in nanopore characterization of thin films by means of positron annihilation with a description of several important issues relevant to positron annihilation.
