Abstract

The neutron diffraction and Mössbauer spectral study of the magnetic spin reorientation in Nd₆Fe₁₃Si was presented. The nuclear neutron scattering showed that Nd₆Fe₁₃Si has the tetragonal 14/mcm crystal structure at all temperatures. The powder neutron diffraction between 10 and 200 K indicated anisotropic lattice changes associated with a change in the magnetoelastic coupling in this compound.
