Abstract
Using a criterion given by Banerjee [Phys. Lett. 12, 16 (1964)] to distinguish first-order magnetic transitions from second-order ones, we demonstrate that not all the title perovskites exhibit a first-order transition at their Curie temperatures We observe that, although exhibits a first-order magnetic transition at exhibits a second-order one.
