“…Mn 5 Si 3 is another Mn-based metallic antiferromagnet (AFM) that has lately regained scientific interest owing to interesting thermodynamic (inverse magnetocaloric effect 7,8 , inverted hysteresis loop, and thermomagnetic irreversibility 9 ) and transport (large anomalous Hall ef-fect 10 ) phenomena. It has two stable AFM phases, namely the AFM2 for 60 < T < 100 K and the AFM1 for T < 60 K, that are confirmed by a plethora of macroscopic measurements 7,[9][10][11][12][13] in thin film, polycrystalline and single crystal samples. While neutron diffraction studies in powders 14 and single crystals 15 are in agreement regarding the collinear spin arrangement in the AFM2 phase, in the past years several contradicting spin structures 14,[16][17][18] have been proposed for the noncollinear AFM1 phase, where the interesting thermodynamic and transport properties are observed.…”
