Abstract

Interactions between magnetic impurities in a dilute alloy, long regarded as a hindrance to the study of the single-impurity problem, have in recent years become themselves the subject of considerable interest. Variation of the concentration of impurities can produce a broad range of magnetic behavior ranging from a slight depression of the characteristic temperature in Kondo systems through spin-glass interactions to magnetic ordering. The nuclear orientation technique is particularly suited to the study of impurity-impurity interactions, since it is applicable to a large number of impurity ions over a wide concentrationand applied-field range, and since it is espeically sensitive to local disalignment of the impurity spins.
