The development of scintillating materials has had a significant impact on various fields
including medical diagnostics, environmental monitoring, security applications, high energy physics, rare event search etc. Today, scintillating materials include a wide range of organic and inorganic substances, such as plastic scintillators, liquid scintillators, organic glass scintillators, thin...
The positron beams play a unique role in antimatter research and particle physics, providing crucial insights into various fundamental questions. In materials science, they are routinely used for studying defects and microstructures in materials. So far the research at Bhabha Atomic Research Centre using positrons is focused on material science aspects.
The conventional monoenergetic slow...
High-resolution experiments using cryogenic trap-based positron beams have recently advanced the understanding of positron-molecule interactions in two distinct but complementary areas: the precise determination of binding energies in polyatomic molecules and unraveling resonant annihilation mechanisms. In this talk, I will present recent progress in these areas, with a specific focus on...
