Abstract
AN earlier communication1 from these laboratories gave preliminary results of an investigation into the magnetic susceptibilities of a series of palladium–rhodium alloys. A noteworthy finding was that alloying palladium with an element, rhodium, of a much lower susceptibility could, over a limited concentration-range, produce alloys having susceptibilities higher than those of either of the pure metals. This was more noticeable at low temperatures. More detailed investigations, since completed, have confirmed the general correctness of these results although minor adjustments of the absolute values previously given are required in some cases.
