It is well known that the magnetic properties of rare earth impurities in crystals are due to the localized character of the 4 f electrons. The degeneracy of the | L , S > ionic levels may be lifted by the exchange interaction between the rare earth and the host or by crystal field effects, and the level sequence depends on which of these mechanisms dominates (see, for example, Campbell, this volume, p. 131). Experiments on various rare earth ions implanted into Fe, Co and Ni have shown that the exchange mechanism is important in ferromagnetic transition metal hosts (Grodzins, Borchers & Hagemann 1966; Boehm, Hagemann & Winther 1966) where the main contribution to the hyperfine field is due to the orbital momentum L of the 4 f shell, but there is no reason to expect that crystal field effects are negligible in all cases. In fact, at very low temperatures, the hyperfine field, which is proportional to the average < J Z > of the ground state, may be rather sensitive to the relative strength of the two mechanisms. This is shown by the measurement, reported here, of the hyperfine field at Pr in Fe, using nuclear orientation.

A hyperfine interaction study of the light rare earth elements, Ce, Pr, Nd and Pm, in the rare earth nickel and CeNi2Al5 compounds by means of the low temperature nuclear orientation is summarised. The magnitudes and directions of the magnetic hyperfine fields obtained through measurements of γ-ray anisotropy and angular distributions reveal the magnetic structures of the ions. The experiments extracted peculiar results for the magnetic properties of the ions, and show certain novel features of the technique to the study of solid-state magnetism.

We report superconductivity and magnetism in a new family of topological semimetals, the ternary half-Heusler compound RPdBi (R: rare earth). In this series, tuning of the rare earth f-electron component allows for simultaneous control of both lattice density via lanthanide contraction and the strength of magnetic interaction via de Gennes scaling, allowing for a unique tuning of the normal-state band inversion strength, superconducting pairing, and magnetically ordered ground states. Antiferromagnetism with ordering vector (½,½,½) occurs below a Néel temperature that scales with de Gennes factor dG, whereas a superconducting transition is simultaneously supressed with increasing dG. With superconductivity appearing in a system with noncentrosymmetric crystallographic symmetry, the possibility of spin-triplet Cooper pairing with nontrivial topology analogous to that predicted for the normal-state electronic structure provides a unique and rich opportunity to realize both predicted and new exotic excitations in topological materials.
