摘要
Our recent experiment on Ps-Ps spin exchange quenching represents the first time that two Ps atoms have been observed interacting with each other. The implication is that experimentation on various systems containing more than one Ps atom is now possible, including the Ps(2) molecule, the Ps Bose-Einstein condensate, the Ps atom laser and the annihilation gamma ray laser. Here we describe various aspects of such research, including the development of new techniques, work currently underway and some possible future experiments. (c) 2007 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
