Free exciton magnetoreflectance and magnetization of Cd1-xCrxS (0.0024
< x < 0.0031) were measured at T = 2.0 K and magnetic field up to 5 T
. Combining tile heavy]role exciton splitting with the magnetization d
ata the exchange integral N-0 beta = +0.46+/-0.04 eV was evaluated wit
hin the framework of mean field approximation.
