Description

High-field magnetization measurements at 4.2 K on several U2T2X (T=Ni, Rh, Pd, Pt; X=In, Sn) compounds have been performed on free and fixed powders up to 57 T. An antiferromagnetic ground state of U2Ni2Sn is corroborated by metamagnetic transitions at 30, 39 and 51 T. U2Rh2Sn shows one metamagnetic transition at 21 T and U2Pd2Sn two metamagnetic transitions at 39 and 45 T. U2Pt2In shows no metamagnetism up to 57 T which is in agreement with the non-magnetic ground state of this compound. The short-pulsed measurements up to 57 T are compared with previous results obtained in quasi-static fields up to 35 T. (orig.)
