The nuclear and magnetic structures of U3Al2Si3 have been investigated by means of polarized and unpolarized neutron diffraction for single crystals. Measurements were made in the temperature range from 7 to 250 K and in external magnetic fields up to 6 T parallel to [100], [(1) over bar 10] and [001]. Above the magnetic ordering temperature (T-C = 36 K) the crystals have the fully ordered U3Ga2Ge3 structure (space group I4/m). Below 35 K both polarized and unpolarized neutron measurements show that the magnetic moments on the U3 atoms, which occupy general positions in the space group, order in the ab-plane in a non-collinear arrangement with a net ferromagnetic component. The moments of the U1 and U2 atoms are found to be small. A polarized neutron study of the magnetization induced by applied fields above T-C shows marked anisotropy and makes it likely that it is this strong local anisotropy of the U3 ions which leads to the non-collinearity of the magnetic structure.
