  • Direct Measurement of the Hyperfine Structure Interval of Positronium Using High-Power Millimeter Wave Technology

    by Akira Miyazaki ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    In this thesis, the author develops new high-power millimeter wave techniques for measuring the hyperfine structure of positronium (Ps-HFS) directly for the first time in the world. Indirect measurement of Ps-HFS in the literature might have systematic uncertainties related to the use of a static magnetic field. Development of the millimeter wave devices supports the precise determination of Ps ... Read more
