Abstract Magnetic susceptibility measurements have been carried out on five series of rare-earth compounds using an ac mutual inductance technique. The compounds satisfy the general formulae RNbO4, R3NbO7, R2TiO5, R2Ti2O7, or RAIO3 where R is a rare-earth ion. The measurements were mainly carried out in the helium range 1 to 4.2° K, and the results analysed in terms of the general Van Vleck formula χ= C/(T+θ) +α. Many of the compounds were observed to undergo antiferromagnetic transitions, and in some cases showed evidence of extremely anisotropic behaviour above the Néel temperature.
