摘要
The angular dependence of metamagnetic transitions is examined for RNi2B2C (R = Er - Tb) as a function of the angle the applied magnetic field makes with respect to the easy axis. For R = Ho and Dy the easy axis is [110] and for R = Er and Tb the easy axis is [100]. All four compounds manifest clear angular dependencies of three or more transitions.
