Oral Contribution
Positrons emitted from radioisotopes are longitudinally spin-polarized due to parity non-conservation in the weak interaction. In 1960's, the angular correlation of annihilation radiation measurement with spin-polarized positrons was demonstrated to be useful in studying the ferromagnetic band structures. In 1982, the first experiment on surface ferromagnetism with spin-polarized positron beam...

Oral Contribution
One goal of the JPos-17 International Workshop on Physics with Positrons is to ascertain whether it would be a good idea to expand the mission of the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility to include science with low energy (i.e. “slow”) spin polarized positrons. It is probably true that experimentation with slow positrons would potentially have wide-ranging benefits comparable to...
