    HH-TT diagram of 3D diluted Ising antiferromagnet Nic_{c}Mg1βˆ’c_{1-c}(OH)2_{2} with cc = 0.8 has been determined from measurements of SQUID DC magnetization and AC magnetic susceptibility. At HH = 0, this compound undergoes two magnetic phase transitions: an antiferromagnetic (AF) transition at the N\'{e}el temperature TNT_{N} (= 20.7 K) and a reentrant spin glass (RSG) transition at TRSGT_{RSG} (β‰ˆ\approx 6 K). The HH-TT diagram consists of the RSG, spin glass (SG), and AF phases. These phases meet a multicritical point PmP_{m} (HmH_{m} = 42 kOe, TmT_{m} = 5.6 K). The irreversibility of susceptibility defined by Ξ΄\delta (= Ο‡FCβˆ’Ο‡ZFC\chi_{FC} - \chi_{ZFC}) shows a negative local minimum for 10 ≀H≀\leq H \leq 35 kOe, suggesting the existence of possible glassy phase in the AF phase. A broad peak in Ξ΄\delta and Ο‡β€²β€²\chi^{\prime \prime} at Hβ‰₯H \geq 20 kOe for TN(c=0.8,H)≀T≀TN(c=1,H=0)T_{N}(c=0.8,H) \leq T \leq T_{N}(c=1,H=0) (= 26.4 K) suggests the existence of the Griffiths phase.Comment: 11 pages, 14 figures; J.
