Abstract
The Mössbauer effect in 237Np has been used to investigate the hyperfine interactions in NpPd3, NpGe3 and NpRh3. NpPd3 has a first order magnetic transition at 49K and NpSn3 orders magnetically at 9K. The saturation hyperfine fields in NpPd3 and NpSn3 are 3.35 MOe and 0.55 MOe, respectively. NpGe3 and NpRh3 do not order magnetically even at 1.7K. The isomer shifts of the NpM3 compounds change regularly with the size of the (AuCu3 type) unit cell.
