Abstract
Neutron-scattering and magnetization measurements have been performed on the stuffed pyrochlore system . We find that despite the introduction of chemical disorder and increasingly antiferromagnetic interactions, a spin-glass transition does not occur for and cooperative paramagnetic behavior exists for all . For , , an antiferromagnetically ordered state coexisting with cooperative paramagnetic behavior is seen without applying any external fields or pressure, a situation advantageous for studying this cooperative behavior.
