摘要
We have performed angular-distribution measurements of the two gammas produced by annihilation of positrons in a type-II superconductor (Nb3Sn) to detect the superconducting smearing effect on the electrons momentum distribution function. Our results give, for the first time, a direct experimental evidence of the redistribution of K-space states at the superconducting transition. © 1969 The American Physical Society.
