Description

9Be NMR and relaxation have been used to probe heavy-fermion superconductivity in U/sub 1-x/Th/sub x/Be13, x = 0 and 0.033. The spin-lattice relaxation rate 1/T1 varies approximately as T3 well below the transition temperature. This is consistent with a class of anisotropic pairing models for which the gap vanishes along lines on the Fermi surface. NMR spectra give no indication of magnetic, structural, or charge-density ordering at a second transition for x = 0.033
