57Fe (1%) doped SrCoO3 obtained by high-pressure method, has been investigated by magnetization and Mössbauer spectroscopy studies (MS) in the temperature range 4.2 K to 300 K. The ferromagnetic ordering temperature T C obtained is 272(2) K. Isothermal magnetization curves have been measured at various temperatures, from which the saturation moments ( M sat) have been deduced. The 57Fe MS spectra display standard six-line patterns with an isomer shift typical of Fe3 + and a very small quadrupole splitting (QS = 0.14(1) mm/s above T C). The magnetic hyperfine field at 4.2 K is 276(1) kOe. The temperature dependencies of the iron hyperfine field and M sat (1.83 µ B at 5 K) are almost identical. This shows that the Fe3 + is replacing Co4 + , both of the same electronic configuration. They also interact similarly, namely the Fe–Co exchange is almost identical to the Co–Co exchange.
