Abstract
MnP shows an interesting magnetic phase diagram under pressure up to ~7.5 GPa, where magnetic long range order disappears and superconductivity appears. Polarized neutron analyses were performed in two different helical magnetic phases. Helicity was observed in the both phases. The two helical domain ratio becomes more unbalanced at a higher pressure, suggesting that the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction, which is enhanced by a local structural strain, could be related with the helical structures.
