Description

RAgSn compounds (R=Nd, Tb, Ho) with a hexagonal GaGeLi-type crystal structure are at low temperatures collinear antiferromagnets with the orthohexagonal magnetic unit cell. The magnetic ordering corresponds to the Az mode. Magnetization curves in magnetic fields up to 200 kOe show a metamagnetism. ((orig.))
