This book provides a coherent and comprehensive overview of the
generation and application of mono-energetic positron beams. It has
been written by acknowledged experts, at a level accessible to
graduate students working, or planning to work, with positron
beams, and to scientists in other areas who want to know something
about the field.
The book begins with a brief historical introduction and an
overview of how positron beams are generated and transported. A
description of the fate of slow positrons in gaseous and condensed
matter, with reference to many of the fundamental measurements made
possible by the advent of positron beams, is followed by a
discussion on applications in the study of solid surfaces, defect
profiling in subsurface regions, interfaces and thin films, and the
probing of bulk properties in novel ways. The book ends with a look
at the future, considering the prospects for intense positron beams
and their potential for further research.
