Can positronium fragment complex molecules?

    Project: Research

    Project Details

    Description

    Electrons can damage DNA by forming a transient negative-ion that fragments DNA building blocks. The positron (anti-electron), used in medical imaging, cannot form a DNA-damaging negative-ion. The positronium atom, a matter-antimatter bound state of an el
