Abstract

An unusually large attenuation (approximately 500%) in the low temperature nuclear orientation directional gamma anisotropy from unannealed thermal neutron irradiated single crystal (160Tb)TbNiAl4 has been observed in the region of saturation of the second order nuclear orientation coefficient, B2. It is suggested that the form of the remanent neutron activation recoil damage in unannealed (160Tb)TbNiAl4 is fundamentally electric quadrupolar in origin, as opposed to magnetic dipolar.
