A field of 18 T has little effect on the AFI phase of a nominal V2O3 sample. The transverse SDW phase of V1.96O3 can be suppressed by a 4.6(3)-T magnetic field applied in the plane of spiraling spins, while the same magnetic field applied along the spiral axis has little effect on the SDW phase.4 pages, 5 figures, accepted by PRBStrongly Correlated ElectronsPhase transition in a magnetic field in V2-yO3 (y=0 and 0.04)text
