Description

A quantitative discussion is given of recent paramagnetic diffuse neutron scattering data on bcc Fe above Tsub(c). It is found that although the spatial spin correlation function has a weak tail of fairly long range the correlation between nearest neighbour spin directions is very small at 1.24 Tsub(c). It is concluded that the data is inconsistent with the giant short-range order hypothesis of Prange and Korenman, Capellmann and Sokoloff and another interpretation is given. (orig.)
