Abstract
High‐resolution magnetization measurements in Fe single crystal spheres at 4.2 and 1.09 K do not exhibit the predicted first‐order phase transition for H↘=H⃗0[111]. Measurements at 0.1° intervals near the expected [111] direction, analyzed to determine the maximum slope δM/δHi, gave no indication of approach to a critical region. The obervation of the transition in DyAl2 and R‐E iron garnets but not Fe is not presently understood.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
