Аннотация:Magnetic ordering in solid solutions of Cex(Gd,Pr,Nd,La)1 – xNi is studied by measuring the DC magnetization and the AC susceptibility in the temperature range of 1.8–300 K. The valence state of cerium ions in Cex(Gd, Pr, Nd)1 – xNi quasibinary systems is studied based on Xray absorption spectra measured at synchrotronradiation sources in the temperature range of 5–300 K. It is shown that chemical pressure and lowering the temperature help heighten the degree of delocalization of the 4f electrons of cerium in Cex(Gd, Nd, Pr)1 – xNi systems. It is found that the substitution of magnetic ions (Gd, Pr, and Nd) with cerium results in significantly weaker magneticordering suppression than the substitution of these ions with
lanthanum at equal concentrations. The obtained data reveal the strong influence of cerium electrons on localized magnetism in the studied compounds. This effect is most probably associated with the contribution of partially delocalized 4f electrons of cerium to the exchange interaction.
