Abstract
Neutron diffraction, a.c. initial magnetic susceptibility, magnetization, and heat capacity measurements allow a better understanding of the metamagnetic-like phase observed at low temperature in (Co1-xMnx)2P. The magnetic structures and phase transitions for x = 0.6 and 0.75 have been determined.
