Abstract
IT appears from various experiments that the ease with which a crystal can grow in a deformed matrix depends very much on the mutual orientation of growing and disappearing lattice domain. This is already obvious from the fact that, in a recrystallizing coarse-grained material, the new crystals show corrugated boundaries, demonstrating visibly that some of the original grains are consumed at a faster rate than others1. Recent experiments give a far more striking proof of this phenomenon.
