    We have discovered that 5 keV bursts of 5 × 107 positrons with an initial longitudinal spin polarization of (28.8 ± 0.7)%, when implanted into a thin Ni(100) crystal, are emitted with 20% efficiency at thermal energies from its surface with (30.9 ± 0.5)% polarization. We conclude that the positron spin polarization is preserved while interacting with the Ni, despite the 0.61 T average transverse magnetization of the Ni at room temperature. The resulting polarized beam has been focused to a 0.025-mm mean-diameter spot when accelerated to 5 keV and will be uniquely suited for experiments on a neutral spin aligned e+-e − plasma, spin- and angle-resolved positronium emission spectroscopy, and critical for producing a triplet positronium Bose-Einstein condensate.
