Description
We report on an investigation of superconductivity and magnetism in the series of compounds MPd2Pb (M=rare earth, Th, U) through measurements of electrical resistivity, magnetic susceptibility, specific heat, and lattice parameters. Both single crystals and polycrystalline samples were studied. The compound UPd2Pb was examined for possible heavy-fermion behavior, and found to exhibit antiferromagnetic order below T=35 K. copyright 1996 The American Physical Society
