The magnetic structure of antiferromagnetic NdRhIn5 has been determined using neutron diffraction. It has a commensurate antiferromagnetic structure with a magnetic wave vector (1/2,0,1/2) below T_N = 11K. The staggered Nd moment at 1.6K is 2.6mu_B aligned along the c-axis. We find the magnetic structure to be closely related to that of its cubic parent compound NdIn3 below 4.6K. The enhanced T_N and the absence of additional transitions below T_N for NdRhIn5 are interpreted in terms of an improved matching of the crystalline-electric-field (CEF), magnetocrystalline, and exchange interaction anisotropies. In comparison, the role of these competing anisotropies on the magnetic properties of the structurally related compound CeRhIn5 is discussed.

We investigated effects of magnetic field H on antiferromagnetic (AF) structures in CeRh_{1-x}Co_xIn_5 by performing the elastic neutron scattering measurements. By applying H along the [1,-1,0] direction, the incommensurate AF state with the propaga
tion vector of q_{h1}=(1/2,1/2,0.297) observed at H=0 is replaced by the commensurate AF state with the q_{c2} = (1/2, 1/2, 1/4) modulation above 2 T for x=0.23, while the AF states with the q_{c1}=(1/2,1/2,1/2) and q_{h2}=(1/2,1/2,0.42) modulations seen at H=0 change into a single q_{c1}-AF state above ~1.6 T for x=0.7. These results suggest the different types of AF correlation for Co concentrations of 0.23 and 0.7 in an applied magnetic field H.
A topological insulator is a state of matter which does not break any symmetry and is characterized by topological invariants, the integer expectation values of non-local operators. Antiferromagnetism on the other hand is a broken symmetry state in w
hich the translation symmetry is reduced and time reversal symmetry is broken. Can these two phenomena coexist in the same material? A proposal by Mong {it et al.}cite{Mong2010} asserts that the answer is yes. Moreover, it is theoretically possible that the onset of antiferromagnetism enables the non-trivial topology since it may create spin-orbit coupling effects which are absent in the non-magnetic phase. The current work examines a real system, half-Heusler GdBiPt, as a candidate for topological anti ferromagnetism. We find that the magnetic moments of the gadolinium atoms form ferromagnetic sheets which are stacked antiferromagnetically along the body diagonal. This magnetic structure may induce spin orbit coupling on band electrons as they hop perpendicular to the ferromagnetic sheets.
We present results of single crystal neutron diffraction experiments on the rare-earth, half-Heusler antiferromagnet (AFM) NdBiPt. This compound exhibits an AFM phase transition at $T_{mathrm N}=2.18$~K with an ordered moment of $1.78(9)$~$mu_{mathrm
B}$ per Nd atom. The magnetic moments are aligned along the $[001]$-direction, arranged in a type-I AFM structure with ferromagnetic planes, alternating antiferromagnetically along a propagation vector $tau$ of $(100)$. The $R$BiPt ($R$= Ce-Lu) family of materials has been proposed as candidates of a new family of antiferromagnetic topological insulators (AFTI) with magnetic space group that corresponds to a type-II AFM structure where ferromagnetic sheets are stacked along the space diagonal. The resolved structure makes it unlikely, that NdBiPt qualifies as an AFTI.
We have investigated the magnetic ground state of the antiferromagnetic Kondo-lattice compounds CeMAl$_{4}$Si$_{2}$ (M = Rh, Ir) using neutron powder diffraction. Although both of these compounds show two magnetic transitions $T_{N1}$ and $T_{N2}$ in
the bulk properties measurements, evidence for magnetic long-range order was only found below the lower transition $T_{N2}$. Analysis of the diffraction profiles reveals a commensurate antiferromagnetic structure with a propagation vector $mathbf{k}$= (0, 0, 1/2). The magnetic moment in the ordered state of CeRhAl$_{4}$Si$_{2}$ and CeIrAl$_{4}$Si$_{2}$ were determined to be 1.14(2) and 1.41(3) $mu_{B}$/Ce, respectively, and are parallel to the crystallographic $c$-axis in agreement with magnetic susceptibility measurements.
The recent discovery of Sr-doped infinite-layer nickelate $textrm{NdNiO}_2$ [D. Li et al. Nature 572, 624 (2019)] offers an exciting platform for investigating unconventional superconductivity in nickelatebased compounds. In this work, we present a f
irst-principles calculations for the electronic and magnetic properties of undoped parent $textrm{NdNiO}_2$. Intriguingly, we found that: 1) the paramagnetic phase has complex Fermi pockets with 3D characters near the Fermi level; 2) by including electronelectron interactions, 3d-electrons of Ni tend to form $(pi, pi, pi)$ antiferromagnetic ordering at low temperatures; 3) with moderate interaction strength, 5d-electrons of Nd contribute small Fermi pockets that could weaken the magnetic order akin to the self-doping effect. Our results provide a plausible interpretation for the experimentally observed resistivity minimum and Hall coefficient drop. Moreover, we elucidate that antiferromagnetic ordering in $textrm{NdNiO}_2$ is relatively weak, arising from the small exchange coupling between 3d-electrons of Niand also hybridization with 5d-electrons of Nd.
