  2. Magnetostriction Measurements • Magnetostriction in the Standard Model of Rare Earth Magnetism • The Magnetoelastic Paradox (MEP) • Experimental Evidence for the MEP in Gd Compounds • Application of Magnetic Fields - the case of GdNi2B2C • Outlook M.Rotter „The Magnetoelastic Paradox“ Planneralm 2006

  3. Magnetostriction Measurements Experimental Methods X-ray Powder Diffraction Capacitance Dilatometry • Anisotropic Effects on • Polycrystals (Expansion, • Symmetry-Changes) • bad resolution (10-4 in dl/l) • Good resolution (10-9 in dl/l) • 45 T Magnetic Fields - forced magnetostriction • requires single crystals 1cm Rotter et.al.
