The effect of pressure on the copper and praseodymium magnetic order in the system Nd(1-x)$Pr(x)Ba2Cu3$O7 with x=0.3, 0.5, 0.7, and 1 was investigated by means of the muon spin rotation (muSR) technique. It was found that the effect of pressure on the Neel temperatures of both copper and praseodymium is positive for the whole range of Pr concentrations (0.3<x<1) studied. These findings are in contrast with a number of previous reports and clarify some of the puzzles related to the effect of pressure on superconductivity and magnetism in the praseodymium-substituted R}(1-x)$Pr(x)Ba2Cu3O7 systems, where R is a rare earth element.

The Pr-rich end of the alloy series Pr$_{1-x}$Nd$_x$Os$_4$Sb$_{12}$ has been studied using muon spin rotation and relaxation. The end compound PrOs$_4$Sb$_{12}$ is an unconventional heavy-fermion superconductor, which exhibits a spontaneous magnetic
field in the superconducting phase associated with broken time-reversal symmetry. No spontaneous field is observed in the Nd-doped alloys for x $>$ 0.05. The superfluid density is insensitive to Nd concentration, and no Nd$^{3+}$ static magnetism is found down to the lowest temperatures of measurement. Together with the slow suppression of the superconducting transition temperature with Nd doping, these results suggest anomalously weak coupling between Nd spins and conduction-band states.
Positive-muon ($mu^+$) Knight shifts have been measured in the paramagnetic states of Pr$_{1-x}$Nd$_x$Os$_4$Sb$_{12}$ alloys, where $x =$ 0, 0.25, 0.45, 0.50, 0.55, 0.75, and 1.00. In Pr-substituted NdOs$_4$Sb$_{12}$ ($x le$ 0.75), but not in NdOs$_4
$Sb$_{12}$, Clogston-Jaccarino plots of $mu^+$ Knight shift~$K$ versus magnetic susceptibility~$chi$ exhibit an anomalous saturation of $K(chi)$ at $sim-$0.5% for large susceptibilities (low temperatures), indicating a reduction of the coupling strength between $mu^+$ spins and $4f$ paramagnetism for temperatures $lesssim$ 15~K. We speculate that itinerant Pr$^{3+}$ quadrupolar excitations, invoked to mediate the superconducting Cooper-pair interaction, might modify the $mu^+$-$4f$ ion indirect spin-spin interaction.
Muon spin rotation and relaxation ($mu$SR) experiments have been carried out to characterize magnetic and superconducting ground states in the Pr$_{1-x}$Nd$_x$Os$_4$Sb$_{12}$ alloy series. In the ferromagnetic end compound NdOs$_4$Sb$_{12}$ the spont
aneous local field at positive-muon ($mu^+$) sites below the ordering temperature $T_C$ is greater than expected from dipolar coupling to ferromagnetically aligned Nd$^{3+}$ moments, indicating an additional indirect RKKY-like transferred hyperfine mechanism. For 0.45 $le x le$ 0.75, $mu^+$ spin relaxation rates in zero and weak longitudinal applied fields indicate that static fields at $mu^+$ sites below $T_C$ are reduced and strongly disordered. We argue this is unlikely to be due to reduction of Nd$^{3+}$ moments, and speculate that the Nd$^{3+}$-$mu^+$ interaction is suppressed and disordered by Pr doping. In an $x$ = 0.25 sample, which is superconducting below $T_c$ = 1.3 K, there is no sign of spin freezing (static Nd$^{3+}$ magnetism), ordered or disordered, down to 25 mK. Dynamic $mu^+$ spin relaxation is strong, indicating significant Nd-moment fluctuations. The $mu^+$ diamagnetic frequency shift and spin relaxation in the superconducting vortex-lattice phase decrease slowly below $T_c$, suggesting pair breaking and/or possible modification of Fermi-liquid renormalization by Nd spin fluctuations. For 0.25 $le x le$ 0.75, the $mu$SR data provide evidence against phase separation; superconductivity and Nd$^{3+}$ magnetism coexist on the atomic scale.
We report on structural and superconducting properties of La(3-x)R(x)Ni2B2N3 where La is substituted by the magnetic rare-earth elements Ce, Pr, Nd. The compounds Pr3Ni2B2N3 and Nd3Ni2B2N3 are characterized for the first time. Powder X-ray diffractio
n confirmed all samples R3Ni2B2N3 with R = La, Ce, Pr, Nd and their solid solutions to crystallize in the body centered tetragonal La3Ni2B2N3 structure type. Superconducting and magnetic properties of La(3-x)R(x)Ni2B2N3 were studied by resistivity, specific heat and susceptibility measurements. While La3Ni2B2N3 has a superconducting transition temperature Tc ~ 14 K, substitution of La by Ce, Pr, and Nd leads to magnetic pair breaking and, thus, to a gradual suppression of superconductivity. Pr3Ni2B2N3 exibits no long range magnetic order down to 2 K, Nd3Ni2B2N3 shows ferrimagnetic ordering below T_C = 17 K and a spin reorientation transition to a nearly antiferromagnetic state at 10 K.
Muon spin rotation/relaxation measurements were performed to investigate magnetic properties of FeSe$_{1-x}$S$_x$ thin films on LaAlO$_3$. A drastic decrease of the initial asymmetry was observed together with the peak structure in the temperature de
pendence of the relaxation rate of muon spins almost at the same temperature where kink anomalies were observed in the temperature dependent resistivity. With increasing S content, the anomaly temperature increased and the magnetic fluctuations at the lowest temperature were suppressed. These results show that the S substitution induces magnetism at low temperatures in FeSe$_{1-x}$S$_x$ thin films. Although the behaviors of the magnetic and nematic phases in FeSe films towards chemical pressure by S substitution are similar to those for bulk FeSe towards hydrostatic pressure, the behavior of $T_{mathrm c}$ is significantly different between these systems. Our results demonstrate that the detailed comparative investigation among physical and chemical pressure effects is essentially important to understand the interplay of the magnetism, the nematicity and the superconductivity in iron chalcogenides.
