In Vol. 8 No. 1, page 10, Table 6, Table 4, lattice parameter values are for ε, (Ni3Si2), and ΔH0 for ζ (Ni0.35Si0.65(s)) in the temperature range 700 to 1254 K should be −31.782, not −47.961. The authors with to thank Mr. Richard Curtis of Royal School of Mines, London, England, and Dr. Francois D’Heurle of IBM Research Center for bringing this to their attention.
