Gd 5 Si x Ge 4−x ͑0 Յ x Յ 0.9͒ has been studied using neutron powder diffraction at a wavelength of 2.3724 Å. Antiferromagnetic ordering of the full 7 B Gd moments in the PnmЈa magnetic space group is seen for Gd 5 Ge 4 , with the moments predominantly parallel to the c axis, with a significant a-axis component at the Gd 8d 2 site. The remarkably strong ͑010͒ antiferromagnetic reflection has been used to map out the structural and magnetic phase diagram for this system and show that the O͑II͒ → O͑I͒ structural transformation never proceeds to completion in zero field. The absence of scattering that could be attributed to long-range FM order in the O͑I͒ modification suggests that an externally applied field may be needed to stabilize the ferromagnetic state.
