Resum:	The phonon structure of antiferromagnetic Bi2Fe4O9 (space group Pbnm No. 55, TN≈240  K) was studied theoretically by calculations of lattice dynamics and experimentally between 10 and 300 K by polarized Raman spectroscopy. Most of the 12Ag+12B1g+9B2g+9B3g Raman modes were unambiguously identified. Strong second-order scattering was observed for ab-plane-confined incident and scattered light polarizations. In addition to the phonon-scattering, broad Raman bands with typical characteristics of magnon scattering appear below TN. The magnon bands are analyzed on the basis of magnetic structure of Bi2Fe4O9 and attributed to two- magnon excitations.
