Description
Magnetization (susceptibility), specific-heat and electrical-resistivity studies on the ternary equiatomic compound UPdIn are presented. At 20.4 K the material undergoes a phase transition to an antiferromagnetic state and below 7 K remanent magnetization is observed. The results can be interpreted by the antiferromagnetic structure becoming canted below 7 K resulting in a ferromagnetic component of the magnetization. The low-temperature specific heat shows that UPdIn is another heavy-fermion compound
