Laser surface resolidification experiments have been performed on Ni-Al alloys with 70--89 at.% Ni in the velocity range of 5 {center_dot} 10{sup {minus}4}--5 {center_dot} 10{sup {minus}1} m/s. Microstructures have been studied by optical and transmission electron microscopy. Growth of primary {gamma}-Ni, {beta}-NiAl and metastable {beta}-{gamma} eutectic occurred whereas no primary {gamma}{prime}-Ni{sub 3}Al was observed. A solidification microstructure selection map has been drawn, showing the coupled zone of metastable eutectic and the limit of plane front growth of {gamma}-Ni. The microstructure map has also been calculated on the basis of plane front, cellular/dendritic and eutectic growth models. There was a good agreement between experimental and calculated results, showing the potential of this approach for prediction of solidification microstructure.
