The temperature dependence of superzone energy gaps does not enter. Numerical analysis of electrical-resistance data for a helical antiferromagnet, dysprosium, provides quantitative support for theoretical estimates of critical exponents and amplitude ratios obtained by renormalization-group expansions and by field-theoretical methods and suggests that dysprosium is described by a model whose order parameter has n=4 degrees of freedomAntiferromagnetic properties of substancesDysprosiumElectrical conductivity of crystalline metals and alloysNeel temperatureSpecific heat of solidsSpin systemsarticle2131133
