Abstract
Dependent on sample preparation ErAuSn crystallizes in an either cubic or h exagonal structure. The magnetic structure of polycrystalline cubic ErAuSn has been investigated by neutron diffraction between 40 mK and 3.6 K. The m agnetic propagation Vector was found to be k = [1/2, 1/2, 1/2] and the Neel temperature was determined to be 1.3(2) K. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
