Abstract

In the weakly anisotropic antiferromagnet CoBr2 6(0.48D2O, 0.52H2O) the reorientation of the sublattice magnetizations from antiferromagnetic (AF) to spin-flop (SF) ordering has been studied by neutron scattering and magnetization measurements. Strong evidence has been obtained for the existence of an intermediate phase between the AF and SF phase, which persists up to a tetracritical point.
