Multi-k magnetic structures in USb_{0.9}Te_{0.1} and UAs_{0.8}Se_{0.2}   observed via resonant x-ray scattering at the U M4 edge
  Experiments with resonant photons at the U M4 edge have been performed on a sample of USb_{0.9}Te_{0.1}, which has an incommensurate magnetic structure with k = 0.596(2) reciprocal lattice units. The reflections of the form <kkk>, as observed previously in a commensurate k = 1/2 system [N. Bernhoeft et al., Phys. Rev. B 69 174415 (2004)] are observed, removing any doubt that these occur because of multiple scattering or high-order contamination of the incident photon beam. They are clearly connected with the presence of a 3k configuration. Measurements of the <kkk> reflections from the sample UAs_{0.8}Se_{0.2} in a magnetic field show that the transition at T* ~ 50 K is between a low-temperature 2k and high-temperature 3k state and that this transition is sensitive to an applied magnetic field. These experiments stress the need for quantitative theory to explain the intensities of these <kkk> reflections.
