Table 1 Refined Fourier components of the magnetic moment, S1 = 1/2(R + iI) and S2 = 1/2(R + iI)exp(−2πiϕ) for the two independent Fe atoms (Ri and Ii are the components along the crystallographic axes) from the joint fit of neutron spherical polarimetry and unpolarized neutron diffraction intensities.

  1. Agreement factors: RF = 12.52% for the integrated intensities (slightly better than in ref.26) and χ2 = 7.20 for the polarization matrix elements. Both independent magnetic atoms are constrained to have equal values of the components of the magnetic moment, with a refined phase difference of ϕ = 0.495(5) between both.
