Abstract

PrF3 is an enhanced nuclear paramagnet for which the resonance parameters have been determined both by acoustic resonance (Al’tshuleret al., 1979 [1]) and by conventional nuclear magnetic resonance (Nielsen, 1983 [2]). In this paper, the temperature at which the nuclei of the single stable isotope141Pr,I=5/2, enter an ordered state is estimated to beca. 0.1 mK, smaller than the overall nuclear electric quadrupole splitting 6P/h=1.2 mK. Possible arrangements of the nuclear moments in the ordered state are discussed, together with the requirements for a neutron diffraction measurement.
