Further structural distortion occurs in Mn$_3$O$_4$ upon magnetic ordering at 42 K. Employing high-resolution variable-temperature synchrotron x-ray diffraction we show that tetragonal $I$4$_1$/$amd$ and orthorhombic $Fddd$ phases coexist, with nearly equal fractions, below the N\\'eel temperature of Mn$_3$O$_4$. Significant variation of the orthorhombic $a$ and $b$ lattice constants from the tetragonal $a$ lattice constant is"},"claims":{"count":0,"items":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"1407.2299","kind":"arxiv","version":1},"verdict":{"id":null,"model_set":{},"created_at":null,"strongest_claim":"","one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"weakest_assumption":"","pith_extraction_headline":""},"references":{"count":0,"sample":[],"resolved_work":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57","internal_anchors":0},"formal_canon":{"evidence_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"author_claims":{"count":0,"strong_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1"}
