Abstract
Aluminium single crystals oriented for single slip have been studied by tra nsverse-field muon-spin relaxation measurements after deformation in compre ssion tests and after thermal annealing. The results show that positive muo ns can be used to investigate the interaction of hydrogen with dislocations in metals, which plays an important role in the process of embrittlement.
