Abstract
The magnetic structure of uranium nitride at liquid helium temperature has been studied by neutron diffraction. It is found that this substance is anti-ferromagnetic with ordering of the first kind. A value of 0.75 μB has been found for the magnetic moment at a uranium atom, and a form factor curve has been obtained. Good agreement is found between the experimental form factor and a theoretical calculation based on the assumption that the uranium atoms are triply ionized and have a 5f3 configuration.
