The concentration dependences of the magnetic, magnetoelastic, and electric properties of single-crystal terbium-gadolinium alloys have been investigated. A restructuring of the Fermi surface has been observed at small gadolinium contents in the alloys. It is shown on the basis of the experimental data on the anisotropy of the paramagnetic Curie points that the magnetic anisotropy in the terbium-gadolinium alloys is due mainly to the single-ion crystal-field mechanism.
