Abstract

The density and thermal expansion of alumina (99.99%) were studied in the liquid and solid states in the region of crystallization and melting by irradiating the samples with a narrow beam of gamma quanta. The temperature dependence of the density of strongly supercooled (by 220 K) alumina and the specific volume change on crystallization were determined. The results are compared with the data available in the literature.
