Cr Self-Diffusion Paxton Gondolf 1959

Abstract

Measurement of the radioactivity of the surface reduced by partial diffusion of the radioactive chromium as well a measurement of the radioactivity after gradual working off of thin surface films, after coating radioactive chromium 51 upon pure chromium and annealing the sample for varying lengths of time at temperature between 950 degrees and 1250 degrees. Calculation of the self diffusion coefficients from the results of both measurements. Statistical rating, discussion and comparison of the results obtained.
