It is to be noted that, for the Tb compound, there is a weak bifurcation of the ZFC-FC susceptibilty below about 50 K only for H∥[0001] and it is not clear whether this originates from a weak spin-glass anomaly. At lower temperatures (below 20 K), the neutron diffraction data (Ref. 3) reveal a spin-glass-like feature coexisting with long-range magnetic ordering. Thus, this Tb compound appears to be a complicated magnetic system among heavy rare-earth members of this series, requiring further investigations for a better understanding of these anomalies.
