We report resonant elastic X-ray scattering (REXS) of long-range magnetic order in EuPtSi$_{\text{3}}$, combining different scattering geometries with full linear polarization analysis to unambiguously identify magnetic scattering contributions. At low temperatures, EuPtSi$_{\text{3}}$ stabilizes type A antiferromagnetism featuring various long-wavelength modulations. For magnetic fields applied in the hard magnetic basal plane, well-defined regimes of cycloidal, conical, and fan-like superstructures may be distinguished that encompass a pocket of commensurate type A order without superstructure. For magnetic field applied along the easy axis, the phase diagram comprises the cycloidal and conical superstructures only. Highlighting the power of polarized REXS, our results reveal a combination of magnetic phases that suggest a highly unusual competition between antiferromagnetic exchange interactions with Dzyaloshinsky--Moriya spin--orbit coupling of similar strength.

Nd-based pyrochlore oxides of the form Nd$_{2}B_{2}$O$_{7}$ have garnered a significant amount of interest owing to the moment fragmentation physics observed in Nd$_{2}$Zr$_{2}$O$_{7}$ and speculated in Nd$_{2}$Hf$_{2}$O$_{7}$. Notably this phenomenon is not ubiquitous in this family, as it is absent in Nd$_{2}$Sn$_{2}$O$_{7}$, which features a smaller ionic radius on the $B$-site. Here, we explore the necessary conditions for moment fragmentation in the Nd pyrochlore family through a detailed study of the mixed $B$-site pyrochlore Nd$_{2}$GaSbO$_{7}$. The $B$-site of this system is characterized by significant disorder and an extremely small average ionic radius. Similarly to Nd$_{2}$Sn$_{2}$O$_{7}$, we find no evidence for moment fragmentation through our bulk characterization and neutron scattering experiments, indicating that chemical pressure (and not necessarily the $B$-site disorder) plays a key role in the presence or absence of this phenomenon in this material family. Surprisingly, the presence of significant $B$-site disorder in Nd$_{2}$GaSbO$_{7}$ does not generate a spin glass ground state and instead the same all-in-all-out magnetic order identified in other Nd pyrochlores is found here.
