Positronium as the simplest hydrogen-like electromagnetic state, a quasi-stable system consisting of an electron and its antiparticle positron, which is efficiently formed in the human body by PET emission tomography.Ps is a transient by-product in PET scanning and decomposes into gamma gamma photons in a very short time.
During positron emission tomography, about 40% of the positron destruction results in the formation of a strange positronium atom, which may be trapped inside or between molecules. Decomposition of positronium (Ps) in the patient's body into its nanostructure and tissue metabolism. it depends. Recently, several thinkers have proposed a new concept of PET scanner, which uses the properties of the Ps atom in imaging, called Ps imaging.
Since the positronium atom collides with methane gas, the positronium hydride molecule is formed.In positron emission tomography (PET) imaging with the help of positronium half-life, is it possible to use the half-life of positronium hydride molecule from areas with methane gas such as bovine intestines?
If positronium hydride can only be produced by the interaction of positronium and methane, it could be used as a method to detect methane. However, if positronium hydride can also be produced by the interaction of positronium with molecules other than methane, then it is not a sufficient method for detecting methane. There is a wide variety of molecules in living organisms, and it is difficult to test for all of them. It is necessary to discuss whether there is any theoretical support for methane being a unique precursor.
