Abstract
Using the Mößbauer-effect of57Fe the magnetic moments of iron-atoms dissolved in titanium were measured. This problem is of interest because the superconducting transition temperatureT c increases with the Fe-concentration. The superconducting high-temperature phaseβ-Ti-Fe and the other stable and metastable phases were studied up to the intermetallic compound FeTi. It was found that in not any of this phases a localized magnetic moment exists with the Fe-atoms. Therefore the theory of Gangulyet al. for the increasingT c is applicable. The only phase showing quadrupolinteraction isβ-Ti-Fe; the electric field gradient must be caused by a distortion of the cubic lattice. Two different chemical shifts are found inβ-Ti-Fe which cannot be understood by the phase diagram: one forβ-Ti-Fe withx≧ 8 at% Fe the other forx≦8 at% Fe. The former is equal to the value of FeTi, the latter to theω-phase. The difference is 0.10 mm/s.
