Abstract
Ni-10 wt% Cr and Ni-20 wt% Cr are irradiated with fast neutrons to flu ences of 6.5 x 10(21) and 1 x 10(22) n/m(2) and their isochronal annea ling behaviour is studied between 343 and 945 K. On annealing, the res istivity increases between 343 and 575 K and decreases again at higher temperatures. The increase in resistivity is explained on the basis o f an increase in local order on annealing. The decrease in resistivity at higher temperature arises because of dissociation of defect cluste rs.
