  The evolution of the magnetic order in FeSeTe crystals as a function of Se
content was investigated by means of ac/dc magnetometry and muon-spin
spectroscopy. Experimental results and self-consistent DFT calculations both
indicate that muons are implanted in vacant iron-excess sites, where they probe
a local field mainly of dipolar origin, resulting from an antiferromagnetic
(AFM) bicollinear arrangement of iron spins. This long-range AFM phase
disorders progressively with increasing Se content. At the same time all the
tested samples manifest a marked glassy character that vanishes for high Se
contents. The presence of local electronic/compositional inhomogeneities most
likely favours the growth of clusters whose magnetic moment "freezes" at low
temperature. This glassy magnetic phase justifies both the coherent muon
precession seen at short times in the asymmetry data, as well as the glassy
behaviour evidenced by both dc and ac magnetometry.
