Abstract

It is shown that two possible magnetic structures in the exchange doublet of the exchange-noncollinear antiferromagnetic material Nd2CuO4 that are distinguished by their chirality have certain differences in their optical and acoustic properties. These differences make it possible to identify these structures experimentally.
