The 119Sn hyperfine field in the Heusler alloys Ir1.07Mn1.07Sn0.86, PtMnSn, Ni2MnSn, Co2MnSn, and Pd2MnSn has been measured using the Mössbauer effect. Hyperfine field distributions were obtained from the Mössbauer spectra via the Fourier expansion method of Window. The spectra of Ni2MnSn, Co2MnSn, and Pd2MnSn showed a well-defined value of the hyperfine field. This indicates a well-ordered structure and is consistent with previous neutron diffraction and NMR measurements on these alloys. The Ir1.07Mn1.07Sn0.86 and PtMnSn spectra, on the other hand, showed a wide distribution of fields, indicating a considerable amount of disorder. The extent and type of disorder, as indicated by X-ray diffraction measurements, are also considered.
