Interactions of positrons with atoms and molecules

Abstract

The positron is the antiparticle of the electron. It has the same mass as the electron, but opposite charge. The understanding of the interactions of positrons with normal matter, like atoms and molecules, is of interest in various scientific fields, like nuclear medicine, plasma physics and astronomy. In this talk we will give a short introduction to some theoretical methods to describe the interactions of positrons with atoms on molecules. The remainder of the talks will deal with the calculation of cross sections for collisions of positrons with atomic and molecular gases and the comparison with experimental data.
