Abstract: | The magnetic phase transition in the Invar alloy Fe70Ni30 is investigated by means of small-angle neutron scattering over a wide range of momentum transfer. This method was used to
measure two magnetic correlation lengths R
c
1 and R
c
2 which coexist in the alloy above the phase transition temperature T
c
. The critical correlations with correlation length R
c
1 are described well by an Ornstein-Zernicke expression, and the critical correlations with the second correlation length,
an order of magnitude larger than R
c
2, are described well by a squared Ornstein-Zernicke expression. The temperature dependences obtained for the correlation
lengths R
c
1 and R
c
2 satisfy the power law R
c
∼((T−T
c
)/T
c
) −υ with critical exponents υ1=0.65±0.05 and υ2=1.3±0.1 for the shorter and longer scales, respectively.
