A detection system of the conventional PET tomograph is set-up to record data from e+ e- annihilation into two photons with energy 511 keV, and it gives information on density distribution a radiopharmaceutical in body object. In this paper we explore possibility performing three gamma imaging based ortho-positronium annihilation, as well positronium mean lifetime J-PET constructed plastic scintillators. For purposes simulations formation its were performed taking account distributions...
The Jagiellonian Positron Emission Tomograph (J-PET) is the first PET built from plastic scintillators.J-PET prototype consists of 192 detection modules arranged axially in three layers forming a cylindrical diagnostic chamber with inner diameter 85 cm and axial field-of-view 50 cm.An arrangement long strips scintillators, their small light attenuation, superior timing properties, relative ease increase opens promising perspectives for cost effective construction whole-body scanner, as well...

We report on an exclusive and kinematically complete high-statistics measurement of the basic double-pionic fusion reaction pn→dπ(0)π(0) over full energy region ABC effect, a pronounced low-mass enhancement in ππ-invariant mass spectrum. The measurements, which cover also transition to conventional t-channel ΔΔ process, were performed with upgraded WASA detector setup at COSY. data reveal Abashian-Booth-Crowe effect be uniquely correlated Lorentzian dependence integral cross section....

The existence of a light dark force mediator has been tested with the KLOE detector at DAPHNE. This particle, called U, is searched for using decay chain phi-->etaU, eta-->pi+pi-pi0, U-->e+e-. No evidence found in 1.5 fb-1 data. resulting exclusion plot covers mass range 5

It consists of scintillator strips arranged axially in form a cylinder, allowing cost-effective construction total-body PET. In order to determine properties scanner prototype and optimize its geometry, advanced computer simulations using GATE software were performed. spatial resolution, sensitivity, scatter fraction noise equivalent count rate estimated according NEMA norm as function...
The existence of a new force beyond the Standard Model is compelling because it could explain several striking astrophysical observations which fail standard interpretations. We searched for light vector mediator this dark force, $\mathrm{U}$ boson, with KLOE detector at DA$\Phi$NE $\mathrm{e}^{+}\mathrm{e}^{-}$ collider. Using an integrated luminosity 1.54 fb$^{-1}$, we studied process $\mathrm{e}^{+}\mathrm{e}^{-} \to \mathrm{U}\gamma$, $\mathrm{U} \mathrm{e}^{+}\mathrm{e}^{-}$, using...

Charged lepton system symmetry under combined charge, parity, and time-reversal transformation (CPT) remains scarcely tested. Despite stringent quantum-electrodynamic limits, discrepancies in predictions for the electron-positron bound state (positronium atom) motivate further investigation, including fundamental tests. While CPT noninvariance effects could be manifested non-vanishing angular correlations between final-state photons spin of annihilating positronium, measurements were...

Abstract Purpose Cardiac myxoma (CM), the most common cardiac tumor in adults, accounts for 50–75% of benign tumors. The diagnosis CM is often elusive, especially young stroke survivors and transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) initial technique differential diagnostics CM. Less invasive computed tomography (CT) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are not available majority patients. Here, a robust approach, ortho-Positronium (o-Ps) imaging, presented to determine extracted from patients...
Positronium is abundantly produced within the molecular voids of a patient’s body during positron emission tomography (PET). Its properties dynamically respond to submolecular architecture tissue and partial pressure oxygen. Current PET systems record only two annihilation photons cannot provide information about positronium lifetime. This study presents in vivo images lifetime human, for patient with glioblastoma brain tumor, by using dedicated Jagiellonian system enabling simultaneous...
