Abstract The structural and magnetic properties of R2AlFe16-xMnx(0≤x≤8 for Y,Ho,0≤x≤10 for Pr, 0≤x≤16 for Nd) compounds have been investigated by means of X-ray diffraction and magnetization measurements.The R2AlFe16-xMnx compounds have a hexagonal Th2Ni17-type structure for R=Y and Ho, and a rhombohedral Th2Zn17-type structure for Nd and Pr.With increasing x, the unit-cell volumes have a small increase initially,followed by a greater linear increase.The Curie temperature and the saturation magnetizati on of these compounds show marvelous drop with increasing x. Compensation point was observed in the temperature dependence of the magnetization for Ho2AlFe12Mn4 compound.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
