Abstract
Small angle neutron scattering (SANS) and polarized-beam spin rotation measurements show that amorphous Fe90Zr10 does not exhibit conventional long range ferromagnetic order below Tc. The SANS measurements show the existence of two characteristic length scales : one provides evidence of relatively large spin clusters, while the other is characteristic of the spin dynamics.
