We measured the magnetic susceptibility χ, electrical resistivity ρ, and specific heat Cp of a sputtered amorphous (a-)CeRu2Al10 alloy. χ value for a-CeRu2Al10 alloy follows a Curie-Weiss paramagnetic behavior in the high-temperature region, and magnetic transition was not observed down to 2 K. The effective paramagnetic moment peff is 1.19 μB/Ce-atom. The resistivity shows a typical disordered alloy behavior, that is, small temperature dependence for the whole temperature range. We observed an enhancement of ρ and Cp/T in the low-temperature region of T<10 K. The enhancement in ρ is suppressed by applying a magnetic field. It is suggested that this behavior is caused by the Kondo effect.

AbstractThe electrical resistivity of the tetracyanoquinodimethane salts of ten alkali and transition metal cations has been investigated at temperatures from 300 to 470 K. The measurements indicate a phase transition, the activation energy of conductance being smaller in the high temperature region. The nature of this phase transition is discussed.

An X-ray phase analysis and the metallographic examination were employed in the investigation of crystal structure of the Tb4Sb3 compound. Magnetic properties have been studied by means of magnetometric measurements, including a magnetocaloric effect, electrical resistivity and magnetoresistivity, and specific heat in broad temperature and the magnetic field ranges on a polycrystalline sample. It was confirmed that the Tb4Sb3 compound is an antiferromagnet with the temperature of the magnetic transition, TN = 111.4 K (specific heat) or 114 K (magnetization) . The results are discussed in the term of a crystal field splitting scheme.

The problem of radiative instability of homogeneous rotating partially ionized plasma incorporating viscosity, porosity, and electron inertia in the presence of a magnetic field is investigated. A general dispersion relation is obtained using normal mode analysis with the help of relevant linearized perturbation equations of the problem. The modified Jeans criterion of instability is obtained. The conditions of Jeans instabilities are discussed in the different cases of interest. It is found that the simultaneous effect of viscosity, rotation, finite conductivity, and porosity of the medium does not essentially change the Jeans criterion of instability. It is also found that the presence of arbitrary radiative heat-loss function and thermal conductivity modified the conditions of Jeans instability for longitudinal propagation. It is found that, for longitudinal propagation, the conditions of radiative instability are independent of magnetic field, viscosity, rotation, finite electrical resistivity, and electron inertia, but for the transverse mode of propagation it depends upon finite electrical resistivity and strength of magnetic field and is independent of viscosity, electron inertia, and rotation. From the curves we find that viscosity has a stabilizing effect on the growth rate of instability but the thermal conductivity and density-dependent heat-loss function has a destabilizing effect on the instability growth rate.
