X-ray crystal structure (300 K) and 57Fe Mössbauer effect (77 K) studies were performed for the Gd(Mn1-xFex)2 and Gd(Fe1-xCox)2 compounds. The crystal lattice parameter decreases vs. an average number of 3d electrons. The magnetic hyperfine field treated as a function of the average number of 3d electrons forms a Slater-Pauling type dependence. This dependence is related to the 3d-electron band structure within the frame of the rigid band model.
