Electron transmission microscopy and selected area diffraction have shown that the dislocation loops in aluminum bombarded with 38 Mev alpha- particles lie generally upon the {110} planes with a STA110! Burgers vector normal to the loop, These loops are only seen where the alpha-particles come to rest. The theory of diffraction contrast at dislocations has been used to determine the sense of the Burgers vectors and shows that the loops are formed from interstitial atoms as previously inferred from their annealing behavior.
