N2 - As-cast Mg-4Zn-0.5Zr, Mg-4Zn-2Gd-0.5Zr and Mg-4Zn-2Nd- 0.5Zr alloys were investigated by in situ synchrotron radiation diffraction during hot compression at 350 °C using the facilities of P07 beamline of Petra III at Deutsches Elektronen Synchrotron (DESY), Hamburg, Germany. The specimens were heated at a rate of 100 K/min and compressed with an initial strain rate of 1.1 x 10"3 s"1 up to 30 % strain. The addition of rare earth elements improved the yield strength from 23 MPa in the Mg-4Zn-0.5Zr alloy up to 40 MPa in the alloy with Nd and Gd. Continuous dynamic recrystallization played an important role in the Mg-4Zn- 0.5Zr alloy during deformation and twinning was not dominant. Discontinuous dynamic recrystallization was observed in the in the Mg-4Zn-2Gd-0.5Zr along the grain boundary regions while the grains remained largely without any recrystallization. In the Mg-4Zn-2Gd-0.5Zr and Mg-4Zn-2Nd-0.5Zr alloys the contribution of twinning to deformation was observed at 350 °C. Reasons for these differences will be discussed with respect to microstructures of the alloys.
