Abstract

X-Ray diffraction measurements of MnO confirm the hypothesis that the structural temperature and the magnetic transition temperature, or Néel temperature) are the same. The usefulness of X-ray diffraction intensity data of MnO, with respect to an atomic structural refinement problem involving α-Mn powders, is discussed. Lattice constant values of MnO are listed between 100 and 310°K
