Abstract
The magnetic properties of the compound HoTiGe have been studied by means o f magnetization measurements at different temperatures and fields. The resu lts show that the material displays an antiferro- to paramagnetic phase tra nsition in low fields and a field-induced antiferro- to ferromagnetic trans ition at higher field strengths. From the magnetization data, The magnetic sublattice exchange coupling constants n(11) and n(12) have been determined based on the two-sublattice model and the magnetic entropy change is calcu lated.
