Abstract

The weak ferromagnet FeBO3 exhibits a strong dependence of the transverse sound velocity on the external magnetic field. This dependence has been measured for phonons up to the GHz region. The results can be explained satisfactorily by the interaction of the phonon and magnon dispersion branches.
