Positron Applications
Oral Contribution
Though there are many applications of low energy positrons, many experiments are source limited. Using the LERF accelerator at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility, it is possible to produce a high brightness source of very low-energy positrons. The accelerator requirements are well within the capabilities of the installed hardware. The accelerator can easily produce 50 kW of...

Positron Applications
Oral Contribution
The Helmholtz-Center at Dresden-Rossendorf operates several user beamlines for materials research using positron annihilation energy and lifetime spectroscopy. Two beamlines are being operated at a superconducting electron linear accelerator [1] producing hard X-rays from electron-bremsstrahlung and in turn generating positrons from pair production. Both installations employ bunched...

Positron Applications
Slow Positron Facility at KEK (High Energy Accelerator Research Organization) is a user dedicated facility with an energy-tunable (0.1 - 35 keV) slow positron beam created by a dedicated 50MeV linac [1]. It operates in a short pulse (width 1-12 ns, variable, \5\times 10 ^6\ e\^+\/s) and a long pulse (width 1.2 \mu s, \5\times 10 ^7\ e\^+\/s) modes of 50 Hz.
