Intriguingly, a small but remarkable change is observed in the long-range ordering parameters at T-N2 confirming the presence of a weak spin reorientation (i.e., change in spin configuration) transition of Ru and Yb moments, as well as a change in the magnetic moment evolution of the Yb3+ spins at T-N2. The temperature-dependent behavior of the Yb3+ and Ru5+ moments suggests that the 4d electrons of Ru5+ play a dominating role in stabilizing the long-range-ordered magnetic ground state in the double-perovskite Sr2YbRuO6 whereas only the Yb3+ moments show an arrest at T-N2. The observed magnetic structure and the presence of a ferromagnetic interaction between Ru and Yb ions are explained with use of the Goodenough-Kanamori-Anderson rules.
