1885 Jrnl. Iron & Steel Inst. ii. 618 The author [Osmond] believes..that there are two..varieties of iron, α and β. The crystalline iron α is obtained by tempering at a red heat, followed by a slow cooling. This is transformed into the β variety (which the structure of tempered steel shows to be amorphous) either by a permanent alteration at a low temperature, or by rapid cooling from a red heat..in the presence of carbon, or some other body (manganese, tungsten) exercising the same influence on the..steel.

(ed. 2) 24 Beta iron, formerly, a supposed allotropic form of i[ron] stable between..768° and about 900° C., of body-centred cubic form, and only very feebly magnetic. In reality, the change in magnetic susceptibility of α-iron occurring at 768° C. is not associated with any structural transformation and β-iron is no longer recognized as a distinct variety.
