The first low temperature texture investigation by neutron diffraction is presented. Pole figures arecollected on a special full circle Eulerian cradle mounted completely inside a helium cryostat. Nuclearand magnetic pole figures of antiferromagnetic TbAg are measured at 300 and at 77 K respectively.The bulk specimen revealed only a weak texture. Magnetic satellite reflections presumed for specialsample orientations were not observed.
