Abstract A systematic investigation of structure and magnetic properties of the new R3Fe29-xCrx compounds(R=Y,Ce,Nd,Sm,Gd, Tb,and Dy)has been performed. The Curie temperature of R3Fe29-xCrx increased with increasing atomic number from R=Ce to Gd and de creased from Gd to Dy. The saturation magnetization of R3Fe29-xCrx at 4.2 K decreased gradually with increasing atomic number from R=Y to Dy,except for Ce. The spin reorientations of the easy magnetization direction were observed at around 230 K for Nd3Fe24.5Cr4.5 and 180 K for Tb3Fe28.0Cr1.0, and the magnetohistory effects were obser ved for Nd3Fe24.5Cr4.5 and Sm3Fe24.0Cr5.0 in a low field of about 0.04 T. First order magnetization process occurs in magnetic field of around 2.3 T at room temperature for Tb3Fe28.0Cr1.0. The saturation magnetization of Y3Fe27.2Cr1.8 at 4.2 K is 52.2μB/f.u., which corresponds to an average magnetic moment of 1.92μB per each Fe atom.

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.
