The magnetic phase diagram of the superconductor ErNi 2 B 2 C (T c ¼ 11 K and T N ¼ 6 K) has been studied by neutron diffraction as a function of temperature and magnetic field applied along the symmetry directions [0 1 0], [1 1 0] and [0 0 1] of the tetragonal crystal structure. A series of commens

We present magnetization studies on the quaternary intermetallic superconductor YNizB2C. We have observed magnetic history effects that establish its response as consistent with that of a conventional hard type-II superconductor, and we also report irreversibility line measurements.
The quaternary compound ErNizB2C becomes superconducting with a critical temperature of 9 K. DC magnetisation indicates the presence of magnetic ordering of the Er moments at ~ 7 K. Specific heat measurements show a Schottky anomaly around 45 K with a magnitude of 10 J tool K 1 which agrees well wit
We report an unusual magnetization behavior observed by DC susceptibility measurements in the superconducting state of YNi2BzC and ErNi~BEC compounds after relatively fast cooling in zero or in magnet-remanent field. The magnetization of both substances exhibited an incomplete flux expulsion and evo
