Hexaferrum and epsilon iron (ε-Fe) are synonyms for the hexagonal close-packed (HCP) phase of iron that is stable only at extremely high pressure. A 1964 study at the University of Rochester mixed 99.8% pure α-iron powder with sodium chloride , and pressed a 0.5-mm diameter pellet between the flat faces of two diamond anvils.
The [α/Fe] versus [Fe/H] diagram is a type of graph commonly used in stellar and galactic astrophysics. It shows the logarithmic ratio number densities of diagnostic elements in stellar atmospheres compared to the solar value. The x-axis represents the abundance of iron (Fe) vs. hydrogen (H), that is, [Fe/H].
The Atwater system, [1] named after Wilbur Olin Atwater, or derivatives of this system are used for the calculation of the available energy of foods.The system was developed largely from the experimental studies of Atwater and his colleagues in the later part of the 19th century and the early years of the 20th at Wesleyan University in Middletown, Connecticut.
The A 2 line forms the boundary between the beta iron and alpha fields in the phase diagram in Figure 1. Similarly, the A 2 boundary is of only minor importance compared to the A 1 , A 3 and A cm critical temperatures. The A cm, where austenite is in equilibrium with cementite + γ-Fe, is beyond the right edge in Fig. 1.
The AKF diagram is intended for rocks containing excess aluminium and silica. Its components are: A = Al 2 O 3 - (CaO + Na 2 O + K 2 O) K = K 2 O F = FeO + MgO + MnO. This diagram is less useful, because magnesium does not freely substitute for ferrous iron in many metamorphic minerals important in aluminium-rich rock.

The calorie is a unit of energy that originated from the caloric theory of heat. [1] [2] The large calorie, food calorie, dietary calorie, kilocalorie, or kilogram calorie is defined as the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of one liter of water by one degree Celsius (or one kelvin).
Additionally, the increasing number of new alloys meant that the problem would only get worse. [1] In January 1971, an 18-month study recommended that a unified system would be possible and helpful. An advisory board was established in April 1972 to establish the Unified Numbering System (UNS). [2]
