Structural relaxation of e−-irradiated amorphous alloys by tunnelling and thermally activated processes☆

Abstract The structural relaxation of amorphous alloys (Fe 90 Zr 10 , Fe 41 Ni 41 B 18 and Fe 80+x B 20−x has been studied in the whole stability range of the amorphous state for as-quenched and e − -irradiated specimens by means of the electrical residual resistivity and magnetic after-effect measurements. In the low temperature range (T
