Unlike other transition metals alloyed with a non-magnetic metal, alloys of Ni behave rather differently. This is because of the fragility of the local magnetic moment on Ni. NiMo and NiW do not show any spin-glass phase. However, addition of Fe can bolster the moment on Ni. We wish to study whether the alloy Fe(3.3)Ni(83.2)Mo(13.5), chosen near a composition where mean-field estimates suggest there could be a spin-glass phase, shows such a phase or not.
