Abstract
The age-momentum correlation measurements were applied to the study of annihilation characteristics of positrons and positronium (Ps) in benzene, carbontetrachloride and those mixtures. The observed lifetime spectra and Doppler broadening profiles were decomposed into two-components. The inhibition of the Ps formation by carbontetrachloride was observed in a momentum dependence of the lifetime and in a time dependence of the S parameter.
