Abstract
The measurements of active sound attenuation in the vicinity of spontaneous first-order phase transition in an orthorombic weak ferromagnet Fe3BO6 were carried out. A decrease in the attenuation of active sound passed across a sample at a point of phase transition was observed. The theory of coupled magnetoacoustic waves in Fe3BO6 was created. It is shown that the decrease of attenuation at the point of phase transition can be explained by taking into account the intermediate domain structure in the temperature region, where two magnetic phases coexist.
