The 23 pages that link to Positron, each with the reason it gives.

• ElectronCompared with: It mirrors the electron's properties while carrying positive charge.

• Dirac equationBroader topic: Dirac’s theory implied an electron-like antiparticle later identified as the positron.

• Pair productionRelated: It is the antiparticle produced alongside an electron in the standard example.

• Paul DiracBroader topic: Its discovery confirmed Dirac’s prediction of an electron-like antiparticle.

• AntimatterBroader topic: It was the first antiparticle discovered, in cosmic-ray tracks in 1932.

• MuonCompared with: It shares the muon’s positive charge when compared with a negative muon, but has a different mass and stability.

• AntiparticleBroader topic: It was the first antiparticle identified experimentally.

• Cloud chamberRelated: A cloud-chamber photograph provided decisive evidence for Anderson’s discovery of the positron.

• PositroniumRelated: It is positronium’s antimatter constituent and annihilates with the electron.

• Irène Joliot-CurieRelated: Its emission revealed that irradiated aluminum continued producing a radioactive product after bombardment stopped.

• Electron–positron annihilationRelated: Its opposite electric charge permits annihilation with an electron.

• Frédéric Joliot-CurieRelated: Its emission helped identify the radioactive products created by alpha-particle bombardment.

• AntihydrogenRelated: It binds to an antiproton to form a neutral antihydrogen atom.

• Frederick ReinesRelated: Its annihilation with an electron produced the first prompt flash in the detector.

• Owen ChamberlainRelated: Its discovery preceded Chamberlain’s work and established the experimental precedent for antimatter.

• Patrick BlackettBroader topic: Blackett and Giuseppe Occhialini identified positron tracks in cloud-chamber photographs.

• Cowan–Reines neutrino experimentBroader topic: Each inverse beta decay produced a positron whose annihilation generated the prompt signal.

• C. T. R. WilsonBroader topic: A cloud-chamber track curved like an electron’s but indicated positive charge, revealing the positron.

• Dirac seaBroader topic: The model identifies a vacancy among filled electron states with this particle.

• Carl David AndersonBroader topic: Anderson discovered this particle while studying cosmic-ray tracks.

• Victor HessRelated: Carl David Anderson discovered the positron, the second achievement honored alongside Hess in 1936.

• History of subatomic physicsRelated: Its detection confirmed a striking prediction of relativistic quantum theory.

• Relativistic quantum mechanicsBroader topic: Its existence emerged from interpreting the Dirac equation's solutions.
