The angular distribution of annihilation radiation from copper 64 has been measured with a pair of scintillation counters in coincidence. Coincidences were found when the counters and source were not quite collinear. The relation between the noncollinear coincidence rate and angle of deviation λ could be closely approximated to by an exponential of the form [Formula: see text], where λ0 = (3.60 ± 0.04) 10−3 radian. Interpreting this departure from antiparallelism of the two photons as arising from the residual motion of the annihilating pair, the average momentum of their mass center in copper is found to be (7.20 mc.) × 10−3 which corresponds to an electron energy of 13.2 ev., if the positron is assumed to be thermalized before annihilation.

Monte Carlo simulation has been becoming most powerful tool to describe the electron scattering in solids, leading to more comprehensive understanding of the complicated mechanism of generation of various types of signals for microbeam analysis.The present paper proposes a practical model for the Monte Carlo simulation of scattering processes of a penetrating electron and the generation of the slow secondaries in solids. The model is based on the combined use of Gryzinski’s inner-shell electron excitation function and the dielectric function for taking into account the valence electron contribution in inelastic scattering processes, while the cross-sections derived by partial wave expansion method are used for describing elastic scattering processes. An improvement of the use of this elastic scattering cross-section can be seen in the success to describe the anisotropy of angular distribution of elastically backscattered electrons from Au in low energy region, shown in Fig.l. Fig.l(a) shows the elastic cross-sections of 600 eV electron for single Au-atom, clearly indicating that the angular distribution is no more smooth as expected from Rutherford scattering formula, but has the socalled lobes appearing at the large scattering angle.
