Description
Sharp drop in resistivity and diamagnetic susceptibility below 12 K clearly indicate a superconducting (SC) transition in the system Y-Ni-B (nominal composition: YNi4B). Possibility of a magnetic phase transition at this temperature is ruled out by our specific heat measurements. Superconducting fraction of our samples, as estimated from Meissner effect measurements, is about 2%. (orig.)
