Abstract
The problem of relating fundamental atom movements to the change of the state of order of an alloy is attacked in a basic manner by introducing an infinite array of distribution functions for the occupation of all possible sets of lattice sites. These distribution functions determine all the kinds of order in the lattice, including the usual long- and short-range order. They are shown to obey general equations of motion which are linear and in which the kinetic parameters of atom movements occur as coefficients.Keywords
