Magnetostriction of a U2Fe13Si4 single crystal

Abstract

Study of the longitunidal and transversal magnetistriction in the U2Fe13Si single crystal by a capacitor dilatometer. The observed anizotropic magnetistriction constant are high enough to be attributed to the U sublattice.

The volume change at the first order magnetic phase transition may be result of the field induced non-collinearity.
