From conference on internal friction and ultrasonic attenuation in crystalline solids; Aachen, F. R. Germany- (17 Aug 1973). It is believed that the alpha -peak is not a single, unique peak, probably varying with the presence of hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen. Two regions of deformation seem to exist for the alpha -peak obtained in the highest purity. Results show that the presence of immobile interstitials (oxygen and nitrogen) in solid solution suppresses the alpha -peak, apparently by locking the dislocations. Annealing of deformed specimens in the teinperature range 200 to 300 deg C permits large-scale diffusion of interstitial oxygen or nitrogen to the dislocations. The precipitation peak is explained by the formation of incoherent hydrides causing the generation of many dislocations in the atmosphere of hydrogen in thermodynamic equilibrium with the hydride at the peak temperature. The damping peak originating from these dislocations should be the Snoek-- Koester peak Type I. (21 references) (MCW)
