Abstract

This article reviews some recent materials analysis results using high-energy positron beams at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. We are combining positron lifetime and orbital electron momentum spectroscopic methods to provide electron number densities and electron momentum distributions around positron annihilation sites. Topics covered include the correlation of positron annihilation characteristics with structural and mechanical properties of bulk metallic glasses and compositional studies of embrittling features in nuclear reactor pressure vessel steel.
