A semiquantitative explanation of the observed distribution of magnetism in the transition metals and alloys is made based on a highly simplified quasiparticle band model. It depends on only two parameters, the valence (number of d electrons) of the metal and the ratio of quasiparticle interaction strength to band-width, C 0 E′′. The quantity C 0 E′′ increases with valence and also increases as one goes from the 5 d transition metals to the 3 d transition metals. Ferromagnetism is found to be most likely for those metals with large C 0 E′′ and a valence well away from five. Antiferromagnetism is found to occur for a valence of around five, as do the more complex states such as the ferrimagnetic and spiral-spin-density-wave states, which are explicitly described. It is suggested that the peak in the specific heat of the transition-metal alloys that occurs as one alloys across the 3 d transition series is closely related to changes in the band structure caused by ordering, at least for the Cr-Mn system.
