Abstract
The magnetic hyperfine field B-hf for Cd in the Heusler alloy Pd2MnSn at th e site of chemically introduced Ag has been investigated by PAC following t he beta (-) decay of Ag-111. Sign and temperature dependence of B-hf have b een determined. Comparison of the result B-hf (T = 0) = +8.0(1) T with earl ier data and ab-initio band structure calculations leads to the conclusion that the Ag activity has been incorporated at the Mn site.
