Funded Activity Summary
Matter-antimatter interactions. Much of the light that we see is either due to or is influenced by collisions between particles on the atomic scale. The understanding of astronomical observations, the Sun, or our atmosphere is underpinned by the knowledge of atomic collisions. They are also critical in the development of fusion, lasers and lighting sources generally. Interactions with antimatter have additional applications in the medical and material sciences. For example, positron collisions with matter are used in Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scans and in surface analysis.Funded Activity Details
