Indirect measurement of Ps-HFS in the literature might have systematic uncertainties related to the use of a static magnetic field. Development of the millimeter wave devices supports the precise determination of Ps-HFS by directly measuring the Breit-Wigner resonant transition from o-Ps to p-Ps without the magnetic field. At the same time, the width of the measured Breit-Wigner resonance directly provides the lifetime of p-Ps. This measurement is the first precise spectroscopic experiment involving the magnetic dipole transition and high-power millimeter waves. The development of a gyrotron and a Fabry-Pérot cavity is described as providing an effective power of over 20 kW, which is required to cause the direct transition from o-Ps to p-Ps. Those values measured by the newly developed millimeter wave device pave the way for examining the discrepancy observed between conventional indirect experiments on Ps-HFS and the theoretical predictions of Quantum Electrodynamics. 410 0$aSpringer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,$x2190-5053 606 $aNuclear physics 606 $aHeavy ions 606 $aAtomic structure   606 $aMolecular structure  606 $aPhysical measurements 606 $aMeasurement    606 $aNuclear Physics, Heavy Ions, Hadrons$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P23010 606 $aAtomic/Molecular Structure and Spectra$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P24017 606 $aMeasurement Science and Instrumentation$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31040 615 0$aNuclear physics. 615 0$aHeavy ions. 615 0$aAtomic structure  . 615 0$aMolecular structure . 615 0$aPhysical measurements. 615 0$aMeasurement   . 615 14$aNuclear Physics, Heavy Ions, Hadrons. 615 24$aAtomic/Molecular Structure and Spectra. 615 24$aMeasurement Science and Instrumentation. 676 $a539.7212 700 $aMiyazaki$b Akira$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0654105 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300402003321 996 $aDirect Measurement of the Hyperfine Structure Interval of Positronium Using High-Power Millimeter Wave Technology$91773047 997 $aUNINA
