Investigations of CePd1-xRhx single crystals located near a ferromagnetic quantum critical point

Investigations of CePd1-xRhx polycrystals have revealed a continuous transition from a ferromagnetic state at x=0 to an intermediate valence state at x=1 and evidenced non-Fermi liquid behavior near the critical concentration xc∼0.85 where TC is continuously suppressed to T=0K. We present here first results of specific heat and magnetization measurements on CePd1-xRhx single crystals with composition close to the critical point. They confirm the results obtained on polycrystals and reveal a rather low magnetic anisotropy, despite the orthorhombic structure
