Abstract

The magnetic susceptibility χ of polycrystalline Cr and Cr-0.3 at.% W samples has been studied in the neighborhood of the spin-flip transitionT sf with a relative precision of one part in 104. In pure Cr, χ exhibits a step-type anomaly atT sf=123.0±0.5 K. The χ behavior of the Cr-0.3 at.% W alloy is different from that of pure Cr: No step anomaly exists, but atT sf=112.5±0.5 Kdχ/dT shows a sharp minimum.
