A review of some of the solid state and the magnetic properties of fullerenes
is presented. We summarise and discuss experimental results on magnetism of
pure C60, C70 and higher
fullerenes. The main features of the structure and the magnetic properties of
intercalated fullerenes, such as metallofullerenes,
TDAE-C60 and polymeric
A1C60, are presented. Attention is
also paid to the mixed state properties of fullerene superconductors,
especially to the evaluation of the critical fields and the characteristic
lengths of these materials. Some new experimental results on this subject are
also presented.
