Under the auspices of the KAMIN project of the ministry of industry, together with groups from Tel Aviv University and the Nuclear Research Center at Dimona we are constructing a facility to generate and transport slow (up to ~40 keV) positrons. The slow positrons will be used to perform positron annihilation spectroscopy on various materials. More on this as things progress…..
