We study the effect of a magnetic field (applied along the c axis)
on the low-energy, incommensurate magnetic fluctuations in superconducting
La1.82Sr0.18CuO4. The incommensurate peaks at 9 meV, which in zero
field were previously shown to sharpen in q on cooling below Tc T.
E. Mason et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 77, 1604 (1996), are found to
broaden in q when a field of 10 T is applied. The applied field also
causes scattered intensity to shift into the spin gap. We point out
that the response at 9 meV, though occurring at incommensurate wave
vectors, is comparable to the commensurate magnetic resonance observed
at higher energies in other cuprate superconductors.
