Abstract
The results of a spin density measurement in the compound Ni 3Al as functions of both temperature and magnetic field are reported. A comparative analysis of the present data with those measured in both Ni 3Al at 4.2 K (Felcher G.P. et al., Phys. Rev. B16 (1977) 2124) and pure Ni at various temperatures (Brown P.J. et al., J. Phys. I France 1 (1991) 1529) is presented. By means of this analysis, the deformation of the electron distribution is deduced and the connection with the formation of a magnetic phase in Ni-based systems is enhanced.
