G. Grange et al., INSITU OBSERVATIONS BY SYNCHROTRON WHITE BEAM X-RAY TOPOGRAPHY OF THEPLANAR, CELLULAR AND DENDRITIC GROWTHS OF A BINARY ALLOY, Journal of physics. D, Applied physics, 26(4A), 1993, pp. 98-101
Real-time x-ray topography using white beam synchrotron radiation has
been applied to a study of the planar, cellular and dendritic growths
of an Al 0.73 wt.% Cu alloy. In situ observations have revealed two di
fferent destabilization modes of the solidification front and have pro
vided information on the microstructures obtained by cellular and dend
ritic growth.
