Abstract

The time derivatives of the magnetization of intermetallic compounds RCo2 (R = Y, Tm, Er, Ho, or Dy) with a metamagnetic subsystem of itinerant d electrons have been measured in pulsed magnetic fields up to 300 T generated by an explosive method. Peaks associated with abrupt demagnetization or magnetization of the d subsystem are found in the field dependences of dM/dH. The results obtained are compared with theoretical estimates and the values derived for the critical fields from measurements performed on substituted compounds.
