Abstract
The results of the neutron diffraction and magnetic measurements of th e DyCoSn compound are reported. Neutron diffraction data indicate a si ne modulated noncolinear magnetic structure at T=1.45 K with mu(Dy)=9. 9(1) mu(B) while the magnetic measurement reveal a saturation moment a t T=4.2 K and H=140 kOe of 4.35 mu(B) From the temperature dependence of the magnetic peak intensities we derive the Neel temperature to be at T-N=11 K, while the temperature dependence of the a.c. magnetic sus ceptibility shows an anomaly at 12 K.
