Abstract The antiferromagnetic structure of tetragonal UP 2 below the Néel temperature (203 °K) is determined by neutron diffraction with polycrystalline samples. The magnetic unit cell is twice the size of the chemical one along the c ‐axis. The magnetic structure consists of ferromagnetic sheets of uranium stacked along the c ‐axis in the order + − − +. The magnetic moments of the uranium are parallel to the c ‐axis; their magnitude is (1.0 ± 0.1) BM.
