Abstract
The aperiodic T-Al80Mn20 phase is magnetic with an effective moment 1.3 µB / Mn. Below 4.1 K a spin glass state is observed. The T-phase and the quasi-crystalline Al73Mn21Si6 phase have similar magnetic properties. The crystalline phase, obtained by annealing the T-phase, is less magnetic than the T-phase.
