On partly replacing iron by silicon in the compound Y2Fe17, the hexago
nal cell contracts and the saturation magnetisation is lowered while t
he Curie temperature T-C increases. Carbon insertion results in a cell
expansion and rhombohedral symmetry for y greater than or equal to 1;
the Curie temperature and magnetisation are enhanced strongly. T-C is
further increased by a small silicon substitution.
