Abstract<\/strong><\/p>\n

Progress in the ability to accumulate, cool, and manipulate positrons is enabling new science and technology. The state-of-the-art in positron trapping and beam formation is described, and examples of research using these tools are discussed. Phenomena of interest include understanding the interaction of positrons with ordinary matter such as atoms and molecules, the formation and study of antihydrogen (i.e., the first stable, neutral antimatter in the laboratory), study of electron-positron plasmas, and the use of positrons to characterize materials .<\/p>\n
