Abstract
A resistive anomaly in the title compound appears at about 8K in zero magne tic field. We made a systematic study of that anomaly in magnetic fields up to 30T for various sets of angles. We find that the anomaly is isotropic i n the high conducting plane. We distinguish this anomaly phase line in T-H phase diagram from the 'kink field' line. The data agree well with the theo retical expectation for a charge density wave.
