The antiferromagnet FeBr2 has been studied by Mössbauer spectroscopy in external fields both in the metamagnetic region below the multicritical temperature TMCP and in the second-order transition region above. The local magnetization shows that the metamagnetic transition occurs by spin flips, as in simple models. However, in the second-order transition region, the local magnetization of the sublattice oriented antiparallel to the external field varies continuously but remains parallel to the c axis. This can only be understood if the external magnetic field induces strong transversal spin precession of the moments on the antiparallel sublattice. This shows that the …

On Aug. 5, 1992, BATSE detected the bright soft X-ray transient GRO J0422+32,also known as Nova Per 1992. The COMPTEL instrument (0.75-30MeV) aboard the Compton Gamma-Ray Observatory (CGRO) observed this black-hole candidate twice. During the first observation, which started when the X-ray flux was at its maximum, GRO J0422+32 was detected between 1 and 2MeV. The flux in this energy range was higher than expected from an extrapolation of the standard Sunyaev-Titarchuk Comptonisation model fits to the contemporaneous OSSE and SIGMA data. We discuss several models that may explain the total hard-X/γ-ray spectrum, including the generalised Comptonisation model from Titarchuk. …
