This text reviews the major advances made in recent years in both the theoretical and experimental areas of rapid solidification technology and processing. Topics covered include: processing technologies of rapid solidification and thermodynamic properties; thermodynamics of metastable alloys, relaxation, diffusion, magnetic and electric properties; the structural characterization of supercooled melts, and ultrafine polycrystalline materials.
