Popis: Specimens of glassy Pd80Si20 were irradiated at temperatures below 100 K with 3.5MeV krypton ions. After irradiation, changes in the sound velocity were measured at 80 K without warm-up by Brillouin scattering. The sound velocity decreased with increasing ion fluence and exponentially approached a saturation value of -4.7%. The change in the shear elastic modulus per unit concentration n of defects was estimated to be d(ln C)/dn = -9.4 to -4.7. The results of the present study are compared with changes in the elastic properties predicted recently by an interstitialcy model for glassy metals, and with the elastic properties of glassy metals after thermal treatment.
