Abstract
Using the new technique of nuclear forward scattering (NFS) of synchrotron radiation, we studied the magnetic hyperfine fields Bhf and ordering temperatures TM of the Laves phases LuFe2 (cubic C15) and ScFe2 (hexagonal C14) at pressures up to 90 GPa and temperatures up to 700 K. For LuFe2 we find for TM first an increase from 562 K at 0 GPa to 603 K at 10 GPa and then a decrease to 295 K around 75 GPa. The hyperfine fields Bhf show at 295 K a continuous decrease with pressure, indicating a reduction of the Fe band moment. A similar behaviour of both TM and Bhf was observed in ScFe2.
