Magnetic phase diagrams of the Kagome staircase compounds Co3V2O8 and   Ni3V2O8
  An extensive low temperature magnetisation study of high quality single crystals of the Kagome staircase compounds Ni3V2O8 and Co3V2O8 has been performed, and the H-T phase diagrams have been determined from these measurements. The magnetisation and susceptibility curves for Co3V2O8 are analysed in terms of their compatibility with the different ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic structures proposed for this compound. For Ni3V2O8, the phase diagram is extended to magnetic fields higher than previously reported; for a field applied along the a-axis, the low temperature incommensurate phase is found to close at around 90 kOe.
