Diffusion behavior of helium in molybdenum was investigated by means of the internal friction method. An apparent relaxation internal friction peak associated with helium long-range diffusion was observed around 475 K at a resonant frequency of 56 Hz. In terms of the Gorsky relaxation model and the shift of the peak position with the measurement frequency, the activation energy and pre-exponential factor of the diffusion coefficient of the helium atoms in molybdenum were deduced as 0.63 eV and 6.5 cm 2 /s, respectively.
