Abstract
We have used two neutron-scattering techniques to investigate the magnetic structure of neodymium. By observations of harmonic combinations of its modulation vectors we have deduced that the low temperature magnetic structure is quadruple-q. We have confirmed this by observing a single domain of the structure in a suitably aligned magnetic field.
