Abstract

A profile analysis of the neutron diffraction spectrum of the fcc high pressure hydride γ-MnH0.41 measured under ambient conditions showed that hydrogen is randomly distributed over the octahedral interstices of the fcc metal lattice and that the hydride is an antiferro-magnet with the same collinear spin structure as pure γ-Mn, but with a smaller magnetic moment of about 1.9 Bohr magnetons per Mn atom.
