Abstract

X-ray diffraction techniques have been used to determine the lattice parameters and stacking fault probabilities of specimens of the cubic Laves phase compound GdFe2 used in Mössbauer experiments. The lattice parameter for most samples was 7.400±0.005 Å. All the samples exhibited high stacking fault probabilities. The sta-cking fault probabilities lay in the range 0.12 to 0.35.
