Testing CPT symmetry in ortho-positronium decays with positronium annihilation tomography

Testing CPT symmetry in ortho-positronium decays with positronium annihilation tomography

CPT violation could manifest itself in annihilating positronium events, but searching for this effect would require to know the spin of the annihilating system. Here, the authors do this using a positron-emission tomography scanner, finding no violation with a statistical precision of 10−4.
