Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In a system without randomness or imperfections we had not directly observed time variations of magnetic structure. In the previous study, we found long-time variations of magnetic structure in some non-diluted uniform magnets by means of time-resolved neutron scattering measurements. In this study we clarified that these long-time variations are the intrinsic property and not caused by inevitable randomness in samples. Based on the precise observations of time variation of neutron scattering patterns, we determined that the magnetic phase transition in CeIr3Si2 proceeds with a nucleation-and-growth process. The phase transitions in the mixed system Ce(Ir-Rh)3Si2 showed the coexistence of two (normal and slow) components. The weight ratio of these two components varies according with the concentration. We expect that these findings will contribute to find the origin of the anomalous long-time variation of magnetic structure observed in particular materials.
