Abstract
The temperature dependent saturation magnetization curve of amorphous Fe76Co18B14Si1, alloy was measured using a SQUID magnetometer and vibrating sample magnetometer from 5 K up to 800 K. Inelastic neutron neutron scattering measurements also have been used to study the long wavelength spin dynamics of this high Tc amorphous ferromagnetic alloy. The magnon dispersion curve exhibit the conventional quadratic relationship E = D (T) q2 + △, typical of an isotropic ferromagnet. An estimate of the T=0 value of spin wave stiffness constant, D (0)  144mVÅ value was obtained from a low temperature magnetization curve, which was consistent with the value obtained from the analysis of inelastic neutron scattering data after consideration of its temperature dependence.
