The annihilation of positrons in methane gas at room temperature has been measured at pressures below 2 atm. The annihilation rate for the free positron component is proportional to the gas density and corresponds to an effective number of electrons per molecule taking part in annihilation, Zeff = 139.6 ± 1.0 (standard error). The quenching of orthopositronium corresponds to 1Zeff = 0.57 ± 0.07. Resonance annihilation is discussed in a general way.

Abstract The theory of dispersive Rayleigh waves coupled to atmospheric compressional waves is derived for the case of a solid surface layer. Numerical computation of phase and group velocity curves indicates that an additional branch may be introduced to the dispersion curves as a result of air coupling. Amplitudes of waves propagated according to the various branches are briefly discussed.

AbstractThe mechanism of dynamic instability of a solid surface under a load, determined by perturbations of the electron density and the change in the interatomic interaction, is considered. This instability is manifested upon the excitation of dynamic displacements of atoms in the surface layer, which can lead to formation of finite-lifetime structures in the form of waves with a large amplitude. Such structures were earlier observed experimentally on a stretched germanium (111) surface.

The paper presents the results of experimental studies on the impact of impulse shot peening parameters on surface roughness (Sa, Sz, Sp, Sv), surface layer microhardness, and the mean positron lifetime (τmean). In the study, samples made of the Inconel 718 nickel alloy were subjected to impulse shot peening on an originally designed stand. The variable factors of the experiment included the impact energy, the diameter of the peening element, and the number of impacts per unit area. The impulse shot peening resulted in changes in the surface structure and an increase in surface layer microhardness. After the application of impulse shot peening, the analyzed roughness parameters increased in relation to post-milling values. An increase in microhardness was obtained, i.e., from 27 HV 0.05 to 108 HV 0.05 at the surface, while the maximum increase the microhardness occur at the depth from 0.04 mm to 0.08 mm. The changes in the physical properties of the surface layer were accompanied by an increase in the mean positron lifetime τmean. This is probably related to the increased positron annihilation in point defects. In the case of small surface deformations, the increase in microhardness was accompanied by a much lower increase in τmean, which may indicate a different course of changes in the defect structure consisting mainly in modification of the dislocation system. The dependent variables were subjected to ANOVA analysis of variance (it was one-factor analysis), and the effect of independent variables was evaluated using post-hoc tests (Tukey test).

AbstractIn this study we present the results of Positron Beam Annihilation (PBA) experiments on the gettering of copper in Cz-Si implanted with 33 keV He+ ions with doses ranging from 0.5 to 3× 1016cm−2 followed by an anneal treatment at 1100 K under N2 ambient. For the higher doses this yields a sub-surface layer containing nanometer sized cavities. Copper is introduced into these cavities by diffusing from the backside of the wafer at 1000 K, again under N2 ambient. Mapping of the S and W Doppler broadening parameters, with the implantation dose as running parameter, shows the formation of cavities. After the Cu in-diffusion the change in the values of the characteristic S-W cluster points clearly demonstrates the arrival of Cu at the internal surface of the cavities.
