Description

We report the neutron diffraction experiment on heavy rare-earth hexaboride DyB6. The results indicate that the structural phase transition occurs at 32 K, and the antiferromagnetic order at TN=26 K. The propagation vector of the spin structure is found to be k= 1/4 1/4 1/2 and triple-k spin structure is proposed. (orig.)
