The order disorder transition (antiferromagnetic with conserved total spin) in the B2 structure i s studied when atomic interchanges result from two processes in parallel, a s is the case under energetic particle irradiation: thermally activated jumps and ballistic jumps. The latter favor fully disordered configurations (infinite temperature dynamics), while t h e former tend to restore some degree of order. The appropriate mean-field phase diagram is established, based on a deterministic description of the order disorder kinetics : in the latter, the thermally activated interchange frequencies have been chosen in such a way t h a t in the absence of forced interchange, the steady state value of the order parameter a s predicted by the kinetic model coincides with the equilibrium value given by a simple mean-field thermodynamic description of t h e equilibrium state of the alloy. When t h e infinite temperature dynamics is operating, a tricritical point is identified below which the non-equilibrium order disorder transition becomes first order.

Stochastic effects a r e addressed by a Master Equation, t h e transition probabilities of which are built from the atom jump frequencies entering the deterministic description. I t is shown that in the absence of forced exchanges, the steady state probability of t h e order parameter coincides with t h a t of the mean-field thermodynamics. When forced interchanges a r e operating, the free energy function is replaced by a stochastic potential which can be computed explicitly and helps comparing the respective stability of competing states. Introducing forced interchanges by bursts (replacement cascades) does not change t h e order parameter values with extremal steady state probability, but definitely affects their respective stability. The latter cannot anymore be evaluated from the Master Equation, but from a Fokker Planck equation obtained by a Taylor expansion of the former with respect to the inverse volume of the system. Below t h e tricritical temperature, cascade effects shift the phase boundary of the first order transition towards the spinodal ordering l i n e .

FCC lattice a n d for which irradiation is known to induce inversions of respective stability (Ni4Mo). T h e full dynamical phase equilibrium diagram i s constructed following the above technique ; t h e phase boundary between the two ordered structures is very sensitive to the size of the cascades (cf.
