Abstract
A model of cascade-induced precipitate dissolution is formulated descr ibing the effect of heavy ion irradiation at low temperatures on the s tability of the metastable coherent chromium phase in a Cu-based alloy . Both analytical and Monte Carlo simulation results are consistent wi th recent transmission electron microscopy observations [1] which show ed that the strain contrast of these precipitates disappeared complete ly after irradiation to a fluence of 0.1 dpa at room temperature.
