Abstract
The neutron diffraction, the electric resistivity and the magnetic measurements were carried out on a newly found ternary compound, DyMnGa, having a cubic C15 crystal. The random distribution of Mn and Ga atoms in one site of the C15 crystal is associated to the spin glass state of the sample which is found below its spin glass temperature of 40 K.
