This summer saw the University of Bristol hold the 16th triennial International Conference on Positron Annihilation (ICPA-16) with attendance from over 200 people from 28 different countries. Bristol has a rich history in positron physics; Paul Dirac, who predicted the existence of the positron in 1928, lived here in his childhood and studied in Bristol as an undergraduate.

The results of a collaboration between Bristol's Stephen Hayden and colleagues based in Birmingham, Copenhagen, Hamburg, Vancouver, and Villigen were published in October by Nature Physics. The results show that high temperature superconductivity in layered cuprates can develop from an electronically ordered state called a charge density wave.
