Abstract
The effect of complete restoration of the ice surface after indentation in the temperature range 243-268 K has been detected and studied. The observed effect lies in the growth of new ice grains on the faces of the indent dur ing several hours after the removal of the indenter. The rate of restoratio n is found to increase considerably after the microindentation of the bound ary of an initial grain of polycrystalline ice. Possible mechanisms of this phenomenon are considered. (C) 2000 MAIK "Nauka/Interperiodica".
