Abstract
The magnetic properties of DySb have been studied using specific-heat, susceptibility, and neutron scattering techniques. It is found that there is a single first-order magnetic phase transition with a marked lattice distortion at 9.5 K. This result is in disagreement with the recent work claiming successive structural (quadrupole) and magnetic phase transitions at 11.5 and 9.5 K, respectively.Keywords
