Contour maps of the polarized neutron diffraction intensities measured on a PrPd_0.82Bi₂ single crystal in reciprocal space. (a)–(d) Xnsf, Znsf, Xsf, and Zsf scattering in the (H 0 L) plane, respectively. (e) and (f) 1D-cuts through the (1 0 0) peak measured in the non-spin-flip (red dot) and spin-flip (green dot) scattering channels, respectively. Note that the measured intensity is too strong to show out the error bar. (g) Temperature dependence of the Xsf scattering intensity of the [100] peak.
