Abstract
We investigated the magnetic structure and dynamics of , with elastic and inelastic neutron scattering, to shed light on the topological nature of the charge carriers in the antiferromagnetic phase. We confirm -type antiferromagnetic ordering of the Mn spins below and determine that the spins point along the axis to within about . The observed magnon spectrum can be described very well by the same effective spin Hamiltonian that was used previously to model the magnon spectrum of . Our results show conclusively that the creation of Weyl nodes in by the time-reversal symmetry-breaking mechanism can be excluded in the bulk.
