Abstract

It was disclosed that both magnetic field along the h111i and pressure along the h100i, applied during cooling of a ZnCr ₂O ₄ single crystal through T _N, affect the intensities of magnetic peaks of neutron diffraction below T _N. Magnetic field along the h100i axis have no effect on the magnetic intensities. This fact indicates that the magnetic symmetry of the low temperature phase of ZnCr ₂O ₄ is monoclinic or lower.
