positronium in vacuum and its decays in medium tell us about quantum electrodynamics …

Plasma and trap-based techniques for science with positrons

JR Danielson, DHE Dubin, RG Greaves… - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2015 - APS
In recent years, there has been a wealth of new science involving low-energy antimatter (ie,
positrons and antiprotons) at energies ranging from 10 2 to less than 10-3 eV. Much of this …
