Abstract

The authors have measured the transmission of a positron beam through helium, neon and argon gases from 4 eV up to the positronium formation thresholds. A variable longitudinal magnetic field affects the transmission and allows some degree of phase shift separation, analogously to the performance of an angular distribution experiment. The results for neon and argon are presented.
