Nuclear orientation study of160Tb impurity in gadolinium single crystal

The low temperature nuclear orientation of160Tb in gadolinium single crystal has been studied in the temperature range 5–60 mK and in the external magnetic field Bext ≤9 T, applied both in the a- and c-axis directions. The obtained results indicate the noncollinearity between the Tb magnetic moments and the magnetization of the gadolinium matrix.
