Magnetic hyperfine interaction in KFeCl3a compound with one-dimensional spin correlations

Abstract
Neutron-diffraction measurements revealed in KFeCl3 one-dimensional spin correlations, in the temperature range TNT2TN. Mössbauer-effect measurements at some of these temperatures show a distinct hyperfine magnetic splitting. The spectra exhibit a typical relaxation character which can be explained by one-dimensional spin correlations and the anisotropic magnetic exchange interaction. The spectra that exhibit relaxation phenomena were analyzed by two stochastic models.
