Abstract
We have carried out a polarized neutron scattering study of - and -phase solid oxygen. The diffuse quasielastic scattering in the phase is suggestive of three-sublattice noncollinear short-range order with an in-plane correlation length of 9 ± 1 Å. -phase oxygen exhibits strong inelastic magnetic scattering with the magnon density of states peaking at 10 ± 1 meV. A two-dimensional model is shown to describe well the magnetic properties of both phases.
