Abstract We report the first results on uniaxial stress-induced frequency shifts in an Fe single crystal. Stress was applied along the 〈100〉 axis, which was also the axis of magnetization induced by an external field. The observed frequency shift was −0.34±0.023 MHz per 100 microstrain, which corresponds to ∂Bμ/∂ε=+25.1±1.6 G/100με. The positive sign arises from the negative sign of Bμ itself. This result is interpreted as follows: The stress induces a statistical population shift between magnetically inequivalent sites. Extrapolations from the calculations of Sugimoto and Fukai from Nb and V to Fe yield order of magnitude agreement. The 4T(0) site system seems more likely.
