Abstract
A geometrical device called the pentahedron, resembling the Thompson tetrahedron for face-centred cubic lattices, is constructed for analysing dislocation reactions in a body-centred cubic lattice. Sides and edges of such a pentahedron represent the most common b.c.c. slip planes of the type {110} and the stable b.c.c. Burgers vectors of the types a/2 and a, respectively. A few examples of the use of the pentahedron for analysing b.c.c. dislocation reactions are included.Keywords
