ELECTRONIC STRUCTURE OF LIQUID GALLIUM BY POSITRON ANNIHILATION

Journal Article · · Phys. Letters
OSTI ID:4653363
The observation of the angular correlation of the photons produced in electron-positron annihilation is a panticularly suitable method for studying the conduction electrons in liquid metals. It is a technique which can be applied to disordered systems, and the angular distribution of the photons reflects directly the momentum distribution of the electrons. Positron annihilation experiments on liquid and solid gallium indicate that the free electron model is not a satisfactory description of the liquid near its melting point. (R.E.U.)
