Rm. Hagenmayer et al., X-RAY-DIFFRACTION WITH MOLTEN AUXMN100-X-ALLOYS, Zeitschrift fur Naturforschung. A, A journal of physical sciences, 50(9), 1995, pp. 831-836
The molten alloys Au28.5Mn71.5 and Au68Mn32 are investigated with the
energy dispersive X-ray diffraction method which works rather fast so
that the evaporation loss of Mn from the molten alloys is kept low. Fr
om the observed prepeak follows that both melts are compound-forming b
ut the gold rich melt Au68Mn32 shows only 50% of the short range order
existent within the Au28.5Mn71.5 melt. Total structure factors and to
tal pair correlation functions are discussed.
