3. Positron
   The positron has properties which are identical to those of a negatively charged Electron , except that it has a positive charge. Positrons are unstable in matter and disappear by Annihilation with negatively charged electrons. This produces two Gamma Rays , each of 0.511 MeV which move in opposite ...

12. positron
    (poz´ĭ-tron) the antiparticle of the electron. When a positron is emitted by a radionuclide it combines with an electron and both undergo annihilation, producing two 511-keV gamma rays traveling in opposite directions. This effect is used in positron emission tomography.
