Abstract
Magnetic properties of orthorhombic RCoSn (R = Tb-Er) and RRhGe . (R = Ce,Nd) (of the TiNiSi-type of crystal structure), were studied by mag netometric and neutron diffraction methods. All RTX compounds order an tiferromagnetically at low temperatures. The magnetic structure of TbC oSn and HoCoSn is sine-wave-modulated with the wave vectors k1 = (0, 0 .25, 0.11) and k2 = (0, 0.333, 0), respectively. The magnetic structur es of CeRhGe and NdRhGe compounds are collinear (C mode). Magnetic mom ents of 1.4(2) and 2.0(2) mu(B) localized respectively on Ce and Nd io ns, are aligned along the a-axis.
