Abstract
The magnetic-phase diagram of the free-powder anisotropic Neel ferrimagnet is presented in terms of the reduced sublattice anisotropy fields, x and y. It marks the boundaries of the regions of field-induced first-order transi tions involving the collinear and the non-collinear states. The transition from the ferrimagnetic to the canted phase is always second order. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
