Description

The neutron diffractometer installed at the Kyoto University Reactor (KUR-ND) has been served for magnetic and crystallographic studies of condensed materials since 1967. In order to perform magnetic studies it is quite important to measure magnetization and magnetic structural parameters with respect to not only temperature but also magnetic field. For such magnetic studies the KUR-ND has only an electromagnet applied up to 12.5 KOe parallel to a scattering vector so far. Accordingly, a magnet with much stronger field has been needed for magnetic investigations at the KUR-ND facility. The present note outlines specifications and performances of a superconducting magnet and a cryostat newly set up at the KUR-ND and reports the preliminary results on TbRu2Si2 using this system.
