An investigation was made of the magnetic properties and hysteresis of dysprosium--yttrium alloy single crystals. The paramagnetic--antiferromagnetic transition temperature varied proportionally to the concentration of dysprosium taken to the power of two-thirds. An anomalous sequence of magnetic transitions in a field was observed for the 69 at.% Dy--31 at.% Y alloy, which also exhibited ''double'' hysteresis loops at the antiferromagnetic--ferromagnetic phase transition.
