Abstract
The angular correlations of photons from positrons annihilating in liquid and solid argon, krypton, and xenon show positronium-bubble formation in the liquid phase but not in the solid. Positronium formation increases with increasing atomic weight while bubble radii decrease with increasing atomic weight.Keywords
