Abstract
The sigma phase is the prominent feature of the important system iron-chromium. Early investigators (e.g. Adcock [1] and many others) failed to detect this phase, which forms only slowly, until Wever and Jellinghaus [2], after lengthy annealing found a new structure denoted o. X-ray and microscopic investigations by Cook and Jones [3] on samples annealed up to 60 days at 600°C confirmed o, which is formed below a temperature of 832°C: Hansen [A], Elliott [B] and Spencer [4]. The crystal structure was described by Bergman and Shoemaker [5].
