The Vickers microhardness of Xe-intercalated polycrystalline fullerite C₆₀ (XexC₆₀, x ≃ 0.35) is measured in a moderately low temperature range of 77 to 300 K. A high increase in the microhardness of the material (by a factor of 2 to 3) as compared to that of pure C₆₀ single crystals is observed....
