Abstract
Remarkable applicability of magnetic Compton scattering (MCS) in deducing site specific small spin moments like those in LaFe1−xNixO3 (x = 0.4 and 0.5) is established. The MCS measurements revealed that Fe site gives a dominant contribution (although small) to total magnetic moment, while the contribution of Ni spin moment is found to be antiparallel to that of Fe moment. Present work, which instigates insignificant role of orbital moment and diffused components in the formation of total magnetic moment, triggers era of applications of MCS in ferrimagnetic compounds with small magnetic moments.
