Abstract

The NMR measurements in Fe_3−xMn_xSi alloys show increasingly complex spectra for x > 0.75 due to overlapping signals from Fe, Si and Mn nuclei in various sites. Mössbauer experiments were undertaken to identify the Fe⁵⁷ resonances. The combined NMR and Mössbauer results have been used to elucidate the site substitution and magnetic structure of these alloys for (0 < x < 1.75).
