Correlation of positron age and pair momentum in radiation-induced voids in molybdenum

Description

Dual-parameter measurements of the positron annihilation energy and time spectra in neutron-induced voids in Mo show that the mean lifetime does not decrease monotonically with increasing momentum of the center of mass of the positron-electron pair. At intermediate values of the momentum, there is a minimum in the mean lifetime which deepens with increasing void size; this effect may be due to positronium formation and trapping in the voids
