Neutron diffraction study of short range order in $\gamma$ MnCu alloys

Abstract

A detailed study of the diffuse scattering in the neutron diffraction patterns of single crystals of γ MnCu alloys containing 10, 15, 25 and 40 at% Mn has shown that diffuse peaks occur at the 1½0 type positions, and are due to both atomic and magnetic short range ordering.
