Evidence for positronium formation at incommensurate monolayers of argon on graphite

  • 1. Physics Department, Royal Holloway University of London, Egham, Surrey TW20 0EX (United Kingdom)

Description

Positronium formation has been studied at a graphite surface in the presence of a physisorbed monolayer of argon. In addition to the expected formation when a partial fluid monolayer is present, it is observed that formation is increased when the monolayer becomes an incommensurate solid. (letter to the editor)
