29. We assume (formula presented) as is the case in metals. If Frenkel pairs occur at thermal equilibrium, (formula presented) then G and (formula presented) on the right-hand sides of Eqs. (1) are replaced, respectively, by (formula presented) and (formula presented)
30. It is sometimes claimed that solving the diffusion equation in a hollow sphere yields the sink strength of a void lattice; this is not correct, since the sink strength of a void lattice depends not only on the void radius and the void number density, but also on the lattice geometry [P. Benoist and G. Martin (unpublished)].
