Yes, forms of energy are usually easily converted from one to another, and the writer wishes to advance the hope that electrons can be converted to positrons by means that are economical. This wish is sustained by the thought t hat such convesion would provide an inexhaustible,clean safe, and convemnientenergy source to turn the wheels of industry.

The source would be inehaustible because electrons are evrywhere. It would be clean and safe because electrons interact with positrons producing only a form of gamma radiation that is easily shielded and does not induce radioactivity in shielding materials. The heating effect of this radiatio could be used to drive vapor engines such as steam engines. Convenience for use in automotive equipment or other small installlations would depend on development, and might be debatable.

Te writer knows that sodium 2, probably produced in colliders like cyclotrons, emits two hundred trillion positrons per gram per second/ This informaton appeared in a recent isue of Discove Magazine. No information on the half-life of the isotope was provided, or of the relationsip betwen input energu and output from the isotope.

The writer hopes that people in possession of research and mathematical facilities to investigate this subject will see this article.
