Abstract
The field and orientational dependences of magnetic linear birefringence in α-Fe2O3: Ga single crystals are investigated. The experimental results make it possible to refine and specify the structure and reveal the features of technical magnetization of the modulated magnetic phase of this weak ferromagnet. It is shown that the model of the modulated magnetic structure used in this study adequately describes the experimental situation.
