The Ising magnetundergoes an antiferromagnetic (AFM) transition at= 5.6 K, but the magnetic moments of some Sm ions remain disordered even below. Here, we report the results of measurements of thermal expansion, magnetostriction, and dc magnetization ofin the temperature range from 0.26 to 7 K. The magnetization and thermal expansion results show clear irreversible phenomena at temperatures below2.4 K. These results suggest that the partially disordered state of the Sm ions becomes a cluster spin glass belowand coexists with the AFM long-range order. However, unlike the conventional coexistence of spin glass and antiferromagnetism, the isothermal magnetization process at 0.26 K shows a hysteresis curve with almost no remanent magnetization. This observation suggests that the cluster spin glass state is an unusual state with a short relaxation time at zero field.
