Abstract
For original paper see ibid., vol.12, p.L67 (1982). A recent letter claimed that the three-jump frequency ratios W2/W1, W3/W1 and W4/W0 for the standard five-frequency model for dilute FCC alloys contained all the thermodynamic information on these alloys, namely the value of the binding enthalpy of an impurity-vacancy pair. The authors show that this conclusion is erroneous since it rests on an incorrect sampling procedure along the chain of the microscopic configurations through which a given alloy evolves with time.Keywords
