Abstract
Iron particles, encapsulated by graphite layers, were produced by mean s of the Kratschmer are discharge method in an iron pentacarbonyl atmo sphere. The Mossbauer effect is dominated by the vibration of the part icles as a whole. Superparamagnetism is dominant for iron oxide partic les. No endohedral iron fullerenes were observed, contrary to a previo us report.
