Orthopositronium localization in gases by density fluctuation scattering

The large elastic density fluctuation scattering of the orthopositronium atom is combined with the zero point pressure and the gas pressure to localize the orthopositronium atom. The enhanced lifetime of orthopositronium in ethane near the critical isotherm is in good agreement with experimental val...

Description
Summary:The large elastic density fluctuation scattering of the orthopositronium atom is combined with the zero point pressure and the gas pressure to localize the orthopositronium atom. The enhanced lifetime of orthopositronium in ethane near the critical isotherm is in good agreement with experimental values and lends support to the model.
