15. This observation is consistent with a strong magnetic diffuse scattering signal above T N 2, in neutron powder-diffraction experiments, which we also performed separately in the T N 1 < T < 30 K temperature range. A more detailed account of all these observations will be reported elsewhere.
16. The measurements in all configurations (H and H ) are in fact both sensitive to T N 1 and T N 2. This is due to the fact the crystal was misaligned with the rotator axis, leading to ∼ 10°errors in precision for all the given directions.
