Abstract
The role of positronium in the investigation of fundamental aspects of atomic physics is discussed. The recently developed technique of time d positronium beam production and the characterisation of the beam con stituents in the energy range 7-41 eV are outlined. Examples of positr onium atoms as probes in atomic scattering interactions are given.
