IN several alloys of iron, copper, and lithium as well as in some pure metals, martensite formed on cooling reverts to the parent phase upon heating to a temperature below the equilibrium temperature at which the parent phase becomes stable.' These martensitic transformations, therefore, are thermally reversible, although appreciable hysteresis may be involved. The martensitic reaction has long been
