Abstract

Measurements of the dc susceptibility χ(T), dc magnetization, magnetoresistivity, and magnetostriction are utilized to delineate the magnetic B-T phase diagram of the antiferromagnetically ordered (TN=14 K) heavy-fermion superconductor (Tc=2 K) UPd2Al3. The single-crystal data reveal three antiferromagnetic phases for B⊥c, but only one for B∥c. The anisotropic χ(T) in the paramagnetic state suggests a tetravalent configuration of uranium.
