Abstract: A sequential phase transition is described by using high-resolution synchrotron x-ray scattering in a single crystal [Nd.sub.1/2][Sr.sub.1/]Mn[O.sub.3]. The sequent transition is studied by the formation of different magnetic domains at different temperature ranges as that seen by neutron powder diffraction.
