The anomalous expansion of lattice parameter as a function of temperature for an Fe-24Mn alloy during γ→ϵ martensitic transformation

In the present letter, the authors will report their experiment on an Fe-24Mn alloy using high temperature XRD and dilation. A relation between the lattice parameter of austenite and temperature during {gamma}{yields}{epsilon} martensitic transformation was determined. It is expected to be helpful in the understanding of {gamma}{yields}{epsilon} martensitic transformation in Fe-Mn based alloys.
