Abstract

Positron ionization slowing down, formation of the positron track, reactions of e+ with track species and its interaction with a scavenger on a subpicosecond timescale, including the process of the positronium formation process are discussed. Interpretation of the positron annihilation lifetime data on positronium formation in aqueous solutions of NO−3 anions, known as efficient scavengers of the presolvated track electrons, suggests that these ions may also capture epithermal (presolvated) positrons as well.
