Bulk samples of Cu84Co16 composition were undercooled and rapidly solidified using the electromagnetic levitation technique under a static magnetic field of 2 T. A droplet-shaped microstructure was frozen in due to metastable phase separation in the undercooled liquid. A singular droplet size distribution was determined for the minority Co-rich phase, which differed from a bimodal one observed in the samples levitated without the static magnetic field. Such an effect of the magnetic field was found to be similar to that of reduced gravity of parabolic flights. © 2009 IOP Publishing Ltd.
