Abstract
ELECTRICAL resistivity measurements have been made by many workers on quenched, irradiated or plastically deformed metals, in order to study the production of defects by these various treatments. By observing the recovery of the resistivity on annealing, it is possible to study the mobility of the various defects out of the material or to internal sinks. In this communication we present some results on the mobility of defects, introduced by low-temperature plastic deformation in titanium and zirconium.
