N2 - The spatial and temporal correlations of magnetic moments in the paramagnetic regime of (Mn,Fe)2(P,Si) have been investigated by means of polarized neutron diffraction and muon-spin relaxation techniques. Short-range magnetic correlations are present at temperatures far above the ferromagnetic transition temperature (TC). This leads to deviations of paramagnetic susceptibility from Curie-Weiss behavior. These short-range magnetic correlations extend in space, slow down with decreasing temperature, and finally develop into long-range magnetic order at TC.
