Fig. 9

Plots of the isochoric heat capacity (black lines) and Warren-Cowley order parameters (coloured lines) at nearest-neighbour distance for the AlxCrFeCoNi alloy with x = 0.5, 1, 1.5 (when the underlying lattice is bcc). Top panels show order parameters for pairs of different atom types, while the bottom panels show parameters for alike-pairs. In alignment with Table 1, at temperatures above those considered in these plots, the system has already exhibited a B2 ordering. For this reason, the Warren-Cowley parameters do not start from zero, rather from finite positive/negative values.
