Abstract
A study has been made of the effect of superheating of the melt on the position of the “solidification plateau” of tin. It is shown that crystallization occurs in a stepwise manner. An explanation is proposed in terms of coordinated atomic spheres, by the presence of short- and long-range bonds and their anisotropy.
