Changes in the temperature of polymorphic transformations under the action of radiation

Studies on transport processes of 46Sc, 57Со and 188Re impurity atoms in irradiated and non-irradiated samples of metallic titanium, iron and tungsten have shown that the temperature of polymorphic transition depends on the degree of radiation damage of the metal and is “moved” to the region of higher temperatures due to the presence of large number of structural radiation defects that make the restructuring of the crystal lattice difficult.
