Abstract
The muon-spin-relaxation technique has been utilized to characterize t he magnetic properties of the borocarbide compounds RNi2B2C (R = Tm, E r, Ho and Dy), which exhibit coexistence of superconductivity and magn etism. Some general features of their magnetic ground-state and unusua l results obtained in the Ho, Tm and Dy systems are discussed.
