Abstract

The Mössbauer spectra of ErFe₃ obtained at 295 and 85 K are analyzed within a model based on previous neutron diffraction measurements. The hyperfine fields and thus the Fe magnetic moments are found parallel to the b axis of the unit cell at 295 K and canted by 57° from the c axis at 85 K. The isomer shifts for the Fe sites are in agreement with the calculated Wigner-Seitz cell volumes.
