Abstract
- The Jagiellonian Positron Emission Tomograph (J-PET) is a detector for medical imaging of the whole human body as well as for physics studies involving detection of electron-positron annihilation into photons. J-PET has high angular and time resolution and allows for measurement of spin of the positronium and the momenta and polarization vectors of annihilation quanta. In this article, we present the potential of the J-PET system for background rejection in the decays of positronium atoms.<br />Comment: Presented at the 2nd Jagiellonian Symposium on Fundamental and Applied Subatomic Physics, Krak\'ow, Poland, June 4-9, 2017. To be published in Acta Phys. Pol. B
