Abstract

Five single crystals of the hexagonal Pr(Ni 1− x Co x ) 5 compounds with x ≤ 0.20 have been investigated by means of magnetization and susceptibility measurements. The introduction of cobalt leads to the appearance of ferromagnetism with a Curie temperature and cobalt moment which vary as x 2 and x respectively. Cobalt magnetism as well as the crystal field effects on Pr are discussed in the light of these results.
