Abstract: | The magnetization of NdAl2 single crystals was measured at 4.2, 20.3 and 77 K, in magnetic fields up to 35 tesla applied in the 〈100〉, 〈110〉 and 〈111〉 directions. The magnetization in these directions may be described theoretically, without any fitting, in terms of two cubic crystalline electric field parameters and one molecular field constant which have been taken from inelastic neutron scattering data.5 |
