NSUF 24-5018: Neutron/Proton Round Robin: What role does irradiation type play in enhancing ordering in Ni-Cr-based alloys?

'It has been shown that irradiation can enhance ordering in selected Ni-Cr based alloys via proton and neutron irradiation, however heavy ion irradiation to similar doses did not result in ordering. There is a trade-off between ballistic mixing and enhanced diffusion that may produce flux and cascade size dependent microstructures. This innovative project will be dedicated to uncovering the roles of irradiation-type (neutron and proton) in promoting long-range order in Ni-Cr based alloys.
