Abstract
The temperature dependence of the57Fe hyperfine magnetic field (hmf) in Fe-Ni is stronger than the temperature dependence of the57Fe hmf in pure Fe. By analyzing the shape of the57Fe hmf distribution, and with the help of experiments with Si in Fe-Ni, we deduce that this anomalous temperature dependence originates from a large thermal sensitivity of the magnetic moments at those Fe atoms with more Ni nearest neighbors. A strong temperature dependence of the recoilfree fraction was also observed in Fe-Ni alloys. We suggest that a large mean square thermal displacement of Fe atoms in Fe-Ni is the cause of the anomalous temperature dependence.
