Abstract
Positron annihilation spectroscopy is used to study the recovery behav iour in electron irradiated In. A long component of 270 ps in the as-i rradiated samples has been attributed to monovacancies produced during the irradiation, which anneal out at 100 K to give rise to dislocatio n loops. The results obtained are compared with previous works perform ed in low temperature deformed In, concluding that the plastic deforma tion in In is mainly due to twinning.
