| Available Student Projects |
Suitable for: PhD/Masters
Experiments will be carried out to verify the existence of positron binding to atoms.
Suitable for: Honours, PhD/Masters
This experimental project will investigate the interactions of positrons with a variety of molecules of biological relevance.
Suitable for: PhD/Masters
The student will use a pulsed positron beam for materials characterisation through PALS (Positron Annihilation Lifetime Spectroscopy) experiments.
Suitable for: Honours, PhD/Masters
This experimental project will take advantage of a high energy resolution positron beam to measure positron interactions with targets of fundamental interest.
Suitable for: 3rd Year, PhB
The student will produce unique zeolite structures and perform characterization experiments on them using the materials beamline at the Australian Positron Beamline facility.
Suitable for: Honours, PhD/Masters
Electron beams will be used to study excitation of atoms and molecules at low energies
