Benchmark Studies of Positron Interactions with Helium

澳大利亚一直处于电子驱动过程实验研究和正电子相互作用理论描述的前沿。 一个研究实验低能正电子原子物理的新实验计划提供了这两个专业领域的完美协同作用。 该领域是一个相对较新和新兴的领域，重点是一些新的实验方法，如澳大利亚国立大学正在开发的方法。 这组关于正电子与氦相互作用的实验将提供新的实验证据，以进一步加深我们对基本量子过程的理解，并使澳大利亚处于该领域的最前沿。

Australia has been at the forefront of experimental studies of electron-driven processes and theoretical descriptions of positron interactions. A new experimental program to study experimental low energy positron atomic physics provides a perfect synergy of these two areas of expertise. The field is a relatively new and emerging one and is focused around a number of new experimental approaches, such as those being developed at the Australian National University. This set of experiments, on positron interactions with helium, will provide new experimental evidence to further our understanding of fundamental quantum processes and place Australia at the forefront of the field.
