X-ray diffraction patterns show that all samples have single phase cubic spinel structure. The temperature-dependent magnetic measurements revealed that magnetic compensation disappears when Fe3+ in A-site is partially replaced by Mg2+. Moreover, below the compensation temperature the observed magnetic moment of these ferrites increases with magnesium content. The magnetization data at all concentrations are discussed in the light of N¨¦el¡¯s molecular field model taking into account the cations distribution obtained using the analysis of M ssbauer spectra. %K Magnetic Compensation %K Crystal Structure %K X-ray Diffraction %K M ssbauer Spectroscopy %K Cations Distribution %U http://article.sapub.org/10.5923.j.ijmc.20120202.05.html
