Detailed theoretical and experimental investigations of the electronic and magnetic properties of the HoCo(5-x)Si(x) Six compound (x = 0.5 and 1.0) have been performed. All theoretical investigations of the electronic and magnetic properties of the system have been done using the Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker (KKR) band structure method. The calculated magnetic moments range between 1.36 to 1.5 mu(B) per Co atom, depending on the crystal site. The calculations

The structural, electronic and magnetic structures of MnNi(1-x)Sb(x) alloys and compounds have been investigated by X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, magnetization and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The substitution of Ni by Sb leads to drastic changes both in the crystallographic and electronic structure, with remarkable modifications in the magnetic properties of the investigated systems. The most important feature of

An investigation on the electronic and magnetic properties of NiAs-type CrTe and CrSe has been performed for ferromagnetic, antiferromagnetic and non-collinear spin configurations, using the spin-polarized relativistic KKR (Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker) band structure method. Calculated exchange coupling parameters, as well as the total energy calculated as a function of the tilt angle of magnetic moments, indicate the presence of a non-collinear spin

Detailed theoretical and experimental investigations of the electronic and magnetic properties of the RCo(5-x)M(x) compounds (R=Y, Pr and M=Si, Al) have been performed. All theoretical investigations of the electronic and magnetic properties of the system have been done using the Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker (KKR) band structure method. The Si for Co substitution in RCo(5) does not change the magnetic ordering: the RCo(5-x)Si(x) with R=Y, Nd and Pr is

Detailed theoretical and experimental investigations of the electronic and magnetic properties of the Th(x)Y(1-x)Co(4)B compounds have been performed. The neutron powder diffraction shows that by Th for Y substitution, Th atoms occupy preferentially one (1a) of the two Y sites (1a and 1b). The preferential occupation on 1a and 1b crystal sites investigated by theoretical calculations is in good agreement with powder neutron diffraction results. The

Detailed theoretical investigations on the electronic and magnetic properties of the ThFe(11)C(2) compound have been performed using both the linear muffin-tin orbital and Korringa-Kohn-Rostocker methods of band structure calculation. The structure of the ThFe(11)C(2) compound has three inequivalent iron sites with different local environment. A strongly enhanced magnetic moment is observed on certain Fe positions, coexisting with much lower magnetic
