Abstract

A review is given on current high-pressure studies of magnetism employing the new method of nuclear forward scattering of synchrotron radiation as well as the conventional Mössbauer effect. Comparative studies of the magnetic properties of intermetallic RFe2 Laves phases and Eu(II)-chalcogenides are described. We present as examples the pressure induced changes in YFe2 and ScFe2 at pressures up to 100 GPa as well as studies of EuTe in the NaCl-type and the CsCl-type high-pressure phase. Future high-pressure applications of nuclear resonant scattering will be discussed.
