Description

Synthesis and preliminary studies on U1-xNpxPd2Al3 and U1-xNpxRu2Si2 are presented. In all Np compounds measured here, no superconducting transition was found down to 1.4 K. In U1-xNpxPd2Al3 a small amount (0.01≤x≤0.05) of Np induces an anomaly in the lattice parameters and presents in resistivity measurements a sharp minimum at low temperature. (orig.)
