Abstract

The effect of magnetic field on the sinusoidal spin density wave in chromium is studied on the basis of the two-band model previously reported. Two configurations at absolute zero are considered. In one of them the applied magnetic field is parallel to the polarization of the spin density wave and in the other they are perpendicular. A set of self-consistency equations is formulated and is solved under a simplifying assumption that preserves only those features which are most important for the relative stability of the two configurations. The perpendicular configuration proves to be more stable than the parallel configuration, so that the perpendicular susceptibility is greater than the parallel susceptibility. The reason for this is give with qualitative discussion.
