We studied the field-induced magnetic structures of the Tb2Ti2O7 pyrochlore by single-crystal neutron diffraction with a magnetic field applied along a [110] axis, focusing on the influence of a small misalignment. Both induced magnetic structures with k = 0 and k = (0,0,1) propagation vectors are found to be sensitive to the misalignment, which controls the magnitude and orientation of the Tb moments involved in the beta chains, with local [111] anisotropy axis perpendicular to the field. For k = 0, spin-icelike structures are observed for a misalignment of a few degrees whereas other structures, where the Tb-beta moments flip by melting on the field axis, occur when the field is perfectly aligned. The field evolution of the k = 0 structure is well reproduced by a molecular field model with anisotropic exchange. We give a complete symmetry analysis of the k = 0 and k = (0,0,1) magnetic structures, both being described by the basis functions of single irreducible representations.
