The process of obtaining $\alpha$ particles is by heating metal above $\beta$ transus temperature and then slowly cooling from $\beta$ phase to it to form $\alpha$ and $\beta$ this however leads to nucleation only in the boundaries of $\beta$ phase, this is detrimental for the structure of the alloy as explained above.  section{Critical \section{Critical  Analysis} This paper proves that the formation of $\alpha$ phase is definitely dependent upon the $\omega$ phase but is inconclusive as to which mechanism dominates the formation of $\alpha$ particles. There is insufficient evidence of one being superior to the other. The paper uses various modern technologies and tests both hypotheses mentioned in the introduction instead of just investigating one. The problem with this paper is that the Ti-5553 alloy that is being used as a test sample has many alloying elements and therefore makes it difficult to determine where the $\alpha$ particles are forming at the defects at grain boundaries around the alloying elements and titanium or if they truly are affected by the presence of $\omega$.
