dc.description.abstract	The existing controversy about the room temperature structure of multiferroic Pb (Fe12 Nb12) O3 is settled using synchrotron powder x-ray diffraction data. Results of Rietveld refinements in the temperature range of 300-12 K reveal that the structure remains monoclinic in the Cm space group down to 12 K, but the lattice parameters show anomalies at the magnetic transition temperature (TN) due to spin-lattice coupling. The lattice volume exhibits negative thermal expansion behavior, with α=-4.64× 10-6 K-1, below TN.	en_US
