Description
Neutron diffraction and magnetometric data show that RAuSn compounds (R=Gd-Ho) with the hexagonal LiGaGe-type crystal structure order antiferromagnetically at low temperatures. Their magnetic structures are described by the wave vector k=[1/2,0,0]; the magnetic moments are normal to the hexagonal axis in TbAuSn and DyAuSn and parallel to it in HoAuSn. ErAuSn is cubic (MgAgAs-type of crystal structure). The long range magnetic ordering is not observed at T=1.6 K. (orig.)
