摘要:

我们报告的第一个观察到的湮灭的正电子素从2S状态。正电子素(Ps)被从1 S到2S状态的双光子跃迁激发,其中由于正电子电子波函数的重叠的减少,其寿命与基态相比增加了八倍。利用延迟湮没光子产额随激光频率的变化关系,提出了一种新的探测激光激发2S态Ps的方法。这可以被认为是迈向1 S-2S Ps线的新的高精度测量的第一步。

英文摘要:

We report the first observation of the annihilation of positronium from the 2S state. Positronium (Ps) is excited with a two-photon transition from the 1S to the 2S state where its lifetime is increased by a factor of eight compared to the ground state due to the decrease in the overlap of the positron electron wavefunction. The yield of delayed annihilation photons detected as a function of laser frequency is used as a new method of detecting laser-excited Ps in the 2S state. This can be considered the first step towards a new high precision measurement of the 1S-2S Ps line.
