Re-emission of slow positrons from tungsten at elevated temperatures by Al-Qaradawi, I. Y.

“…Irrespective of target history, no sharpening of the energy spectrum of re-emitted positrons was observed as the remoderator temperature was increased. Further, a steady decrease in the apparent re-emitted positron intensity was observed, attributed primarily to the increase in positronium formation, as the temperature of the foil was increased from 20 to 500 °C. …”
