Coarsening of a dendritic Al-10 wt.% Cu alloy at 570 Β°C was investigated by fast in situ X-ray tomography. The variation of the specific solid-liquid interface area as a function of time was found to follow a power-law relation with an exponent close to Γ1/4. Three coarsening mechanisms operate in t
