Abstract
The magnetic structure of an exchange-enhanced ferromagnetic PdFe allo y was determined by polarized and unpolarized neutron scattering measu rements. The polarized neutron data indicate that the magnetic moments are accompanied by an oscillatory spin component perpendicular to the ferromagnetic moments. Further measurements of unpolarized neutrons s upport the assertion that the oscillatory spin component can be descri bed by a rotation wave.
