“…Positron annihilation (PA) techniques, such as positron lifetime spectroscopy (PLS) and Doppler broadening spectroscopy (DBS), are promising nuclear-physical methods for investigating structural defects in different materials, including ultrafine-grained and nanostructured materials [ 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 ]. The efficiency of PA methods for studying carbon based materials was demonstrated in [ 14 , 15 ]. These methods allow the solution to such problems as the study of the mechanisms and dynamics of the occurrence, transformation, and disappearance of defects during hydrogenation.…”
