We investigated the magnetic phase of the perovskite CaCrO$_3$ by using the muon spin relaxation technique accompanied by susceptibility measurements. A thermal hysteresis loop is identified with a width of about 1 K at the transition temperature. Within the time scale of the muon lifetime, a static antiferromagnetic order is revealed with distinct multiple internal fields which are experienced in the muon interstitial sites below the phase-transition temperature, $T_N=90 K$. Above $T_N$, lattice deformations are indicated by transverse-field muon-spin rotation and relaxation suggesting a magneto-elastic mechanism.

Transverse-field muon-spin rotation ($mu$SR) experiments were performed on a single crystal sample of the non-centrosymmetric system MnSi. The observed angular dependence of the muon precession frequencies matches perfectly the one of the Mn-dipolar fields acting on the muons stopping at a 4a position of the crystallographic structure. The data provide a precise determination of the magnetic dipolar tensor. In addition, we have calculated the shape of the field distribution expected below the magnetic transition temperature $T_C$ at the 4a muon-site when no external magnetic field is applied. We show that this field distribution is consistent with the one reported by zero-field $mu$SR studies. Finally, we present ab initio calculations based on the density-functional theory which confirm the position of the muon stopping site inferred from transverse-field $mu$SR. In view of the presented evidence we conclude that the $mu$SR response of MnSi can be perfectly and fully understood without invoking a hypothetical magnetic polaron state.
The magnetic structures and the magnetic phase transitions in the Mn-doped orthoferrite TbFeO$_3$ studied using neutron powder diffraction are reported. Magnetic phase transitions are identified at $T^mathrm{Fe/Mn}_N approx$ 295~K where a paramagneti c-to-antiferromagnetic transition occurs in the Fe/Mn sublattice, $T^mathrm{Fe/Mn}_{SR} approx$ 26~K where a spin-reorientation transition occurs in the Fe/Mn sublattice and $T^mathrm{R}_N approx$ 2~K where Tb-ordering starts to manifest. At 295~K, the magnetic structure of the Fe/Mn sublattice in TbFe$_{0.5}$Mn$_{0.5}$O$_3$ belongs to the irreducible representation $Gamma_4$ ($G_xA_yF_z$ or $Pbnm$). A mixed-domain structure of ($Gamma_1 + Gamma_4$) is found at 250~K which remains stable down to the spin re-orientation transition at $T^mathrm{Fe/Mn}_{SR}approx$ 26~K. Below 26~K and above 250~K, the majority phase ($> 80%$) is that of $Gamma_4$. Below 10~K the high-temperature phase $Gamma_4$ remains stable till 2~K. At 2~K, Tb develops a magnetic moment value of 0.6(2)~$mu_mathrm{B}/$f.u. and orders long-range in $F_z$ compatible with the $Gamma_4$ representation. Our study confirms the magnetic phase transitions reported already in a single crystal of TbFe$_{0.5}$Mn$_{0.5}$O$_3$ and, in addition, reveals the presence of mixed magnetic domains. The ratio of these magnetic domains as a function of temperature is estimated from Rietveld refinement of neutron diffraction data. Indications of short-range magnetic correlations are present in the low-$Q$ region of the neutron diffraction patterns at $T < T^mathrm{Fe/Mn}_{SR}$. These results should motivate further experimental work devoted to measure electric polarization and magnetocapacitance of TbFe$_{0.5}$Mn$_{0.5}$O$_3$.
A detailed electronic phase diagram of perovskite-type oxides Sr$_{1-x}$La$_x$FeO$_3$ $(0leq x leq 0.5)$ was established by synchrotron X-ray diffraction, magnetization, and transport measurements for polycrystalline samples synthesized by a high-pre ssure technique. Among three kinds of helimagnetic phases in SrFeO$_3$ at zero field, two of them showing multiple-${it q}$ helimagnetic spin textures tend to rapidly disappear in cubic symmetry upon the La substitution with $x$ less than 0.1, which accompanies the loss of metallic nature. On the other hand, the third helimagnetic phase apparently remains robustly in Sr$_{1-x}$La$_x$FeO$_3$ with $x$ higher than 0.1, followed by merging to the spin/charge ordered phase with $xsim 1/3$. We propose an important role of itinerant ligand holes on the emergence of multiple-${it q}$ states and a possible link between the third (putative single-${it q}$) helimagnetic phase in SrFeO$_3$ and the spin/charge ordered phase in Sr$_{2/3}$La$_{1/3}$FeO$_3$.
The RNiO$_3$ perovskites are known to order antiferromagnetically below a material-dependent Neel temperature $T_text{N}$. We report experimental evidence indicating the existence of a second magnetically-ordered phase in TlNiO$_3$ above $T_text{N} = 104$ K, obtained using nuclear magnetic resonance and muon spin rotation spectroscopy. The new phase, which persists up to a temperature $T_text{N}^* = 202$ K, is suppressed by the application of an external magnetic field of approximately 1 T. It is not yet known if such a phase also exists in other perovskite nickelates.

Effect of hydrostatic pressure and magnetic field on electrical resistance of the Kondo-like perovskite manganese oxide, La$_{0.1}$Ce$_{0.4}$Sr$_{0.5}$MnO$_3$ with a ferrimagnetic ground state, have been investigated up to 2.1 GPa and 9 T. In this co mpound, the Mn-moments undergo double exchange mediated ferromagnetic ordering at $T_{rm C}$ $sim$ 280 K and there is a resistance maximum, $T_{rm max}$ at about 130 K which is correlated with an antiferromagnetic ordering of {it cerium} with respect to the Mn-sublattice moments. Under pressure, the $T_{rm max}$ shifts to lower temperature at a rate of d$T_{max}$/d$P$ = -162 K/GPa and disappears at a critical pressure $P_{rm c}$ $sim$ 0.9 GPa. Further, the coefficient, $m$ of $-logT$ term due to Kondo scattering decreases linearly with increase of pressure showing an inflection point in the vicinity of $P_{rm c}$. These results suggest that {it cerium} undergoes a transition from Ce$^{3+}$ state to Ce$^{4+}$/Ce$^{3+}$ mixed valence state under pressure. In contrast to pressure effect, the applied magnetic field shifts $T_{rm max}$ to higher temperature presumably due to enhanced ferromagnetic Mn moments.
