dc.description.abstract<P> The equilibrium behavior of the boundaries separating the a and y crystalline phases in the copper zinc alloy system is investigated by measuring the magnitude, the relative anisotropy and the temperature dependence of the interfacial energies. A model, consistent with the interfacial energetics, is proposed and supported by observations of misfit dislocations at the boundary. The migration kinetics of the y/β interface are determined for both dendritic and polyhedral morphologies and the atomic mechanisms of growth are inferred from the. internally faulted ordered y precipitates. </p>en_US
