Résumé
La structure atomique et magnétique de Dy7 Ni3, amorphe a été étudiée en diffraction neutronique à partir d'une méthode de double substitution isotopique qui s'est avérée extrêmement puissante.


Abstract
The atomic and magnetic structure of melt-spun amorphous Dy7Ni3 is being studied using the neutron diffraction double-null isotopic substitution technique. It is concluded that the double-null technique is a very powerful method for studying the atomic and magnetic structure of appropriate binary amorphous alloys.
