QUADRUPOLAR INTERACTIONS IN TbAg ANTIFERROMAGNETIC COMPOUND

Abstract
The strength of the quadrupolar interactions is determined by means of ultrasonic velocity experiments. For the tetragonal symmetry, the ferroquadrupolar terms are strong enough to explain the first-order transition at the Néel temperature. Their actual effects in the magnetic structure are not fully determined.
