Here, to clarify the key factor for the slow magnetic transitions in CeIr₃Si₂ and other materials, magnetization and neutron scattering measurements have been carried out on the system Ce(Ir_xRh_1–x)₃Si₂. In this system, a magnetic phase transition is accomplished through slow and fast processes. The fractions of these processes vary with the chemical composition x. A new interpretation of magnetic phase transitions, which includes the coexistence of two processes, is presented.
