Popis: A statistical analysis of atom probe data is developed for evaluating the evolution of local composition fluctuations in concentrated alloys. The model allows the calculation of theoretical correlation and contingency coefficients for a presumed alloy microstructure taking into account the instrumental parameters, i.e. aperture size, block size and detector efficiency. A comparison of theoretical coefficients with those obtained from measured concentration profiles gives access to physically relevant parameters. The analysis is applied to the diffusion-controlled dissolution of spherical precipitates in the technical alloy Nimonic PE16 under ion irradiation
