Abstract

It is argued that a spontaneous vortex phase may exist in the recently discovered compound $ErNi_2B_2C$ at temperature below 2.3K. The consequences of this proposal are discussed. In particular the magnetic response of the system are studied both above and below 2.3K and further experiments proposed.
