Abstract
The low temperature nuclear orientation of160Tb impurities in Gd andY single crystals has been studied in the temperature range 7–40 mK andin the external magnetic field range 0–7.3 T applied alonga-, b- andc-crystal axes. In the case of Tb in Gd we found a considerable noncollinearity of the Tb magnetic moment with respect to the magnetic external field direction even for highB ext. In the case of Tb in Y the results cannot be described by a simple model, taking into account the simultaneous influence of the crystal andexternal magnetic fields. Some new proposals for interpretation of the experimental dat are given.
