%X Evolutions of texture and lattice strain of swaged brass samples were investigated by neutron diffraction at STRESS-SPEC under tensile deformation using a unique tension/compression rig. The two phased sample BS1 (61% α-brass and 39% β-brass) became 100% α-brass after 400 °C annealing (sample BS2). The starting texture of the as-received material BS1 was the typical <111>, <200> double fiber. This texture develops firstly by in-situ tension to a moderate strengthening. After annealing (BS2) the <111> fiber survives with surprisingly high strength and develops by in-situ tension a very strong <111> fiber of 39 mrd. Line broadening and lattice strain behaviour shows the development of the elastic strain and plastic strain.
