The magnetic anisotropy has been measured in Y-3(FeTi)(29) and Sm-3(FeTi)(2
9). Two anisotropy field values, corresponding to two different hard direct
ions have been found in both Y and Sm compounds. Fe and Sm anisotropies see
m to be in accordance. In Sm-3(FeTi)(29) a type-2 FOMP occurs below 200 K a
long the second hard direction. The temperature dependence of the anisotrop
y field (H-A) and critical held (H-cr) is also reported. (C) 1999 Published
