Abstract
By elementary reasoning one would expect an activation energyW−2W k for the Bordoni peak.W k is the kink energy. This assumption fits with experimental evidence. It is pointed out that in the Donth theory for the Bordoni peak, the radiation loss from the dislocation oscillators is overestimated and that a recalculation of the Donth theory will probably yield an activation energyW− 2W k
