Abstract
Positron scattering from helium has been historically limited to experiments with energy resolution of 0.5 eV or worse. A new apparatus has been developed that allows the investigation of scattering processes with an energy resolution as good as 30 meV, allowing new experimental insight into positron helium interactions. High resolution measurements of low energy scattering from helium will be presented, with a particular emphasis on the development of benchmark cross sections, the investigation of threshold behaviour and the search for positron scattering resonances.
