Abstract.

We have performed time-of-flight neutron powder diffraction experiments on Tb1-xPrxCu2 compounds to study the concentration dependence of the crystal and magnetic structures. The mixed compounds crystallize in the same space group Imma as the pure RCu2 with R atoms randomly distributed on the 4e sites. The type of magnetic ordering is the same as for the end concentration TbCu2. A characteristic broadening of the magnetic reflections belonging to the third harmonics of the magnetic structure is observed.
