| Abstract: | The equilibrium value of the electrical resistivity of Au–16.25 at.% Ag has been determined as a function of temperature. In addition, isochronal annealing of quenched Au–15 at.% Ag alloys has been studied by means of resistivity measurements. Both types of experiments indicate that in these alloys a decrease of the degree of order gives rise to an increase of the electrical resistivity. This result confirms the previous interpretation of the radiation damage and its recovery in low-temperature electron-irradiated Au–15 at.% Ag alloys in terms of the two-interstitial model. |
