The electronic structure of lanthanides and actinides is characterized by partially occupied f-
electron states (4f and 5f states, respectively). The magnetic and other electronic properties …

A study by powder X-ray diffraction (using the Rietveld method of structure refinement), 57Fe
Mössbauer spectroscopy, and magnetization measurements have shown that YFe4Al8 …

AT-Al family of alloys (where A= actinides, lanthanides or rare earth elements; T= transitional
metals) has unique physical properties. AT 2 Al 20 phases are of particular importance since …

A systematic investigation of the isothermal section at 850° C of the U–Fe–Al ternary system
was done by means of scanning electron microprobe analysis and X-ray powder diffraction …

Single crystals of the ternary semiordered alloys UFe x Al 12− x with x= 3.8, 4.0, 4.2, 4.5, 4.7,
5.0, 5.5, and 5.8, were prepared, and found to crystallize in the tetragonal ThMn 12-type …

An 57Fe Mössbauer study of UFexAl12− x (4≤ x≤ 5.8) intermetallics with ThMn12-type
