Abstract
IN the course of recent research on iron-silicon ferritic alloys, a very faint extra line appeared on X-ray powder photographs taken with iron or chromium radiations. The line appeared close to a strong reflexion of high order. The assumption that it was due to an extra phase was eliminated by the fact that the line still appeared when pure elements were used as specimens.
