Abstract

The application of the Lock-Crisp-West (LCW) theorem to positron-annihilation angular-correlation data for copper and germanium as well as to Compton profile data for germanium is presented and discussed. Deviations from the LCW prediction are observed for copper and for germanium, attributable to the positron's presence. In germanium the Compton results indicate near agreement with the LCW expectation; the sensitivity of the theorem is analyzed.
