Champdoizeau, Q., Valloton, J., Henein, H.
A hypoeutectic Al–22.5 wt pctCu sample was processed using the Electro-Magnetic Levitator on board of the International Space Station within the frame of the European Space Agency projects NEQUISOL and THERMOLAB. In total, 21 cycles of melting and cooling were carried out, with the last cycle...
