We investigated the crystallographic and magnetic properties of double perovskite $Sr_2Fe_{l-x}Cr_{x}MoO_{6}$ (x=0.0, 0.01, 0.03, 0.05, and 0.10). Mossbauer spectra of the $Sr_2Fe_{l-x}Cr_{x}MoO_{6}$ have been taken at various temperatures ranging from 15 to 415 K. As the temperature increased towards $T_{c}$(415 K), the Mossbauer spectra showed line broadening and 1, 6 and 3, 4 line-width differences because of anisotropic hyperfine field fluctuation. The Mossbauer spectra indicated that an anisotropic field fluctuation of +H ( $P_{+}$=0.85) was greater than that of -H ($P_{-}$=0.15). We also calculated the field fluctuation frequency factors and the temperature dependence of anisotropy energies from its relaxation rate. We interpreted the effect of Cr ($t^3$$_{2g}$) doping as a decrease in the anisotropy energy.

[ $M\"{o}ssbauer$ ] spectra of $Ti_{1-x-y}Co_xFe_yO_2(0.01{\leq}x,\;y{\leq}0.05)$ prepared with $^{57}Fe$ enriched iron have been taken at various temperatures ranging from 80 to 300K. The Mossbauer spectrum of $Ti0.94Co_{0.03}Fe_{0.03}O_2$ consists of a ferromagnetic (six-Lorentzian), a paramagnetic phase (doublet) and armorphous phase over all temperature ranges. Isomer shifts indicate $Fe^{3+}$ for the ferromagnetic phase and the paramagneic phase of $Ti_{1-x-y}Co_xFe_yO_2$ samples. It is noted that the magnetic hyperfine field of ferromagnetic phase had the value about 1.5 times as large as that of u-fe. The XRB data for $Ti_{1-x-y}Co_xFe_yO_2$ showed mainly rutile phase with tetragonal structures without any segregation of Co and Fe into particulates within the instrumental resolution limit. The magnetic moment per (Co+Fe) atom in $Ti0.94Co_{0.03}Fe_{0.03}O_2$, under the applied field of 1T was estimated to be about $0.332{\mu}_B$ which is ten times as large as that of $Ti0.97Co_{0.03}Fe_{0.03}O_2,\;0.024{\mu}_B$ per Co atom, suggesting a high spin configuration of Co and fe ions.

Cu$_{0.1}$Fe$_{0.9}$Cr$_2$S$_4$ has been studied with Mossbauer spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction, vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), and magnetoresistance (MR) measurement. The crystal structure was determined to be a cubic spinel with lattice parameter a$_{0}$=9.9880 $\AA$. The MR measurements show a semiconductor behavior below 110 K and metal behaved above 100 K. The temperature dependence of magnetization of Cu$_{0.1}$Fe$_{0.9}$Cr$_2$S$_4$ was reported. In addition to a large irreversibility between the zero-field-cooling (ZFC) and the field-cooling (FC) magnetization at applied field H=100 Oe, a cusp-like anomaly was observed in both the FC and ZFC curves. It shifted toward the lower temperature region with increasing magnetic field, and then showed convex type maximum at 110 K, under the applied field of 5 kOe. The Mossbauer spectra were measured from 15 K to room temperature. The asymmetric line broadening was observed for the sample Cu$_{0.1}$Fe$_{0.9}$Cr$_2$S$_4$, and it was considered to be dynamic Jahn-Teller relaxation. The charge state of Fe ions was ferrous in character. The unusual reduction of magnetic hyperfine field below 110 K was interpreted in terms of cancellation effect between the mutually opposite orbital current field (H$_{L}$) and Fermi contact field (H$_{C}$).

$NdFe_{10.7}Ti_{1.3}$ has been studied with X-ray diffraction, Mossbauer spectroscopy and vibrating sample magnet-ometer(VSM). The alloys were prepared by arc-melting under an argon atmosphere. The $NdFe_{10.7}Ti_{1.3}$ contains some $\alpha-Fe$, from X-ray and Mossbauer measurements. The $NdFe_{10.7}Ti_{1.3}$ has the $ThMn_{12}$-type tetragonal struc-ture with $a_{0}=8.607{\AA}\;and\;c_{0}=4.790{\AA}$. The Curie temperature ($T_c$) of the $NdFe_{10.7}Ti_{1.3}$ is 590 K from $M\"{o}ssbauer$ spectroscopy performed at various temperatures ranging from 13 to 800 K. Each spectrum below $T_c$ was fitted with six subspectra of Fe sites in the structure$(8i_{1},\;8i_{2},\;8j_{2},\;8j_{1},\;8f\;and\;{\alpha}-Fe)$. The area fractions of the subspectra at room temperature are 13.8%, 15.4%, 17%, 16.4%, 34.1% and 3.3%, respectively. Magenetic hyperfine fields for the Fe sites decrease in the order, $H_{hf}(8i)>H_{hf}(8j)>H_{hf}(8f)$. The abrupt changes in the magnetic hyperfine field, isomer shift and magnetic moment observed at about 180 K in $NdFe_{10.7}Ti_{1.3}$ are attributed to spin reorientation.

Stability of the properties of magnetite particles in novel medicinal magnetic ointments of multipurpose application has been studied by M ssbauer spectroscopy. It has been found that the comparative analysis of the results obtained by model fitting of $^{57}$ Fe nuclei spectra with those known for the system Fe$_3$O$_4$-${\gamma}$-Fe$_2$O$_3$ allows to identify the phase composition of the particles. It is noted that this composition, as well as that of the initial pure component in the form of a highly dispersed fraction (~100$\AA$), differs noticeably from the stoichiometric one. From the magnetic hyperfine field despite small particle sizes, the particles exhibit no superparamagnetism (in the temperature range from 95 to 300K). Radiative sterilization of the ointments has no effect on the magnetic component composition.

The magnetic properties of the polycrystalline ${(Fe_{2}O_{3})}_{1-x-y}{(In_{2}O_{3})}_{x}{(Eu_{2}O_{3})}_{y}$(x=0.01, y=0.02과 x=0.02, y=0.03) have been studied by the methods of X-ray diffraction, $M\"{o}ssbauer$ effect, and magnetic hysteresis measurement. The X-ray diffraction patterns show that the samples have a same crystal structure as $\alpha-Fe_{2}O_{3}$. From the analysis of the temperature dependence of the quadrupole splitting and average half-width, it is found that the Morin transition occurs in the sample of x=0.01 and y=0.02 and the spin angle defined as the angle between the [111] crystal axis and antiferromagnetic vector, changes from about $35^{\circ}$ to the (111) plane as increasing the temperature in the sample of x=0.02 and y=O.03. The temperature dependence of magnetic hyperfine field is analyzed by using the spin-wave theory. The isomer shift values at room temperature are found to be given by about 0.35mm/s for the samples which means that the Fe ions belong to $3^{+}ion$. The temperature dependence of isomer shift was analyzed by using the Debye model.

The crystal structure and magnetic properties of a new solid solution type ferrite $(Fe_2O_3)_5-(Al_2O_3)_{3.4}-(Ga_2O_3)_{0.6}-SiO$ were investigated using X-ray diffraction and M$\"{o}$ssbauer spectroscopy. The results of the X-ray diffraction pattern indicated that the crystal structure of the sample appears to be a cubic spinel type structure. The lattice constant (a = 8.317 ${\AA}$) decreases slightly with the substitution of $Ga_2O_3$ even though the ionic radii of the Ga ions are larger than that of the Al ions. The results can be attributed to a higher degree of covalency in the Ga-O bonds than in the Al-O and Fe-O bonds, which can also be explained using the observed M$\"{o}$ssbauer parameters, which are the magnetic hyperfine field, isomer shift, and quadrupole splitting. The drastic change in the magnetic structure according to the Ga ion substitution in the $ (Fe_2O_3)_5(Al_2O_3)_{4-x}(Ga_2O_3)_xSiO$ system and the low temperature variation have been studied through a M$\"{o}$ssbauer spectroscopy. The M$\"{o}$ssbauer spectrum at room temperature shows the superpositions of two Zeeman patterns and a strong doublet. It shows significant departures from the prototypical ferrite and is comparable with the diluted ferrite. The doublet of spectrum at room temperature appears to originate from superparamagnetic clusters and also the asymmetry of the doublet appears to be caused by the preferred orientation of the crystallites. The M$\"{o}$ssbauer spectra below room temperature show various complicated patterns, which can be explained by the freezing of the superparamagnetic clusters. On cooling, the magnetic states of the sample were various and multi critical.

$AB_2X_4$(A, B=Transition Metal, X=O, S, Se) are cubic spinel normal ferrimagnets, in which M ions occupy the tetrahedral sites and Cr ions occupy the octahedral sites. Recently, they have been investigated for behaviour of B site ions and A-B interaction. Polycrystalline $[Co_{0.9}Zn_{0.1}]_A[Cr_{1.98}{^{57}Fe_{0.02}}]_BO_4$ compound was prepared by wet-chemical process. The ferrimagnetic transition was observed around 90K. $M\"{o}ssbauer$ absorption spectra at 4.2K show that the well-developed two sextets are superposed with small difference in hyperfine fields($H_{hf}$). The hyperfine fields of $CoCr_{1.98}{^{57}Fe_{0.02}}O_4$ and $Co_{0.9}Zn_{0.1}Cr_{1.98}{^{57}Fe_{0.02}}O_4$ were determined to be 488, 478 kOe and 486, 468 kOe, respectively. We notice that the one of the magnetic hyperfine field values changes with Zn ion substitution. These results suggest the incommensurate states and spin-reorientation temperature($T_S=18K$) changes with Zn ions substitution below spin-reorientation temperature($T_S=28K$) of $CoCr_{1.98}{^{57}Fe_{0.02}}O_4$

Precisely refined Mossbauer study and nano structure observation revealed that intergranular phase formed between a-Fe and Nd₂Fe₁₄B phase in NdFeNbB alloys plays a significant role on the magnetic properties. The intergranular interaction was characterized in term of Henkel Plot (δM plot), and hyperfine field, quardrupole splitting and isomer shift were refined to predict the presence and role of the intergranular phase. By the addition of Nb into Nd₈Fe₈₆B₆ composition, coercivity was found to increase by 25% due to the refinement of average grain size of both the soft and hard magnetic phases which was decreased from 50 nm of virgin Nd/sub 8/Fe/sub 86/B/sub 6/ to 25 nm in Nd₈Fe ₈₅Nb₁B₆ alloys. The role of Nb addition was confirmed to stabilize the Nd₂Fe₁₄B lattice preventing from thermal vibration of the corresponding sites substituted Fe by Nb atoms in all sites in the Nd₂Fe₁₄B lattice. The enhanced coercivity was originated from the exchange hardening of soft and amorphous phases surrounding the hard magnetic Nd₂Fe₁₄B crystal.

Magnetic properties and crystallographic properties of $Cu_{1-x}Ge_{1-y}Fe_{x+y}O_3$ system were studied by using x-ray diffraction, superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) and Mossbauer spectroscopy. All the samples have orthorhombic structure and the lattice constants some decreased as the substituted iron contents increasing. The spin-Peierls (SP) transition temperature of our samples are about 12.5 K and these temperatures lowered as increasing substituted iron contents. The Mossbauer spectra consisted with two Zeeman sextets and one doublet due to $Fe^{3+}$ ions. The jump up of magnetic hyperfine field of 2nd Zeeman sextet and the increasing of the values of quadrapole splitting and isomer shift of doublet below SP transition temperature could be interpreted with the variation of the superexchange interaction, the symmetry of lattice sites and the covalency of bonds due to the atomic displacements.
