The magnetic and superconducting properties of the Heusler alloy Pd 2 YbSn have been
investigated with heat-capacity, resistivity, and magnetic-susceptibility measurements. The …

We report the results of experimental investigations on structural, magnetic, resistivity, and
caloric properties of Fe 2 RhZ (Z= Si, Ge) along with ab initio band structure calculations …

We investigated the electronic structure of the enigmatic CeRh 3 B 2 using resonant inelastic
scattering and x-ray absorption spectroscopy in combination with ab initio density functional …

Publisher Summary This chapter describes the interplay between magnetism and
superconductivity in rare earth compounds, where the magnetic moments are produced by …

Heusler alloys have been intensively studied due to the wide variety of properties that they
exhibit. One of these properties is of particular interest for technological applications, ie, the …

The compounds CeOs 3 B 2 and CeRu 3 B 2 show superconductivity with T c's of 3.5 and
1.1 K respectively. The magnetic susceptibility of both these compounds may be described …

This paper aims to address the structural, magnetic, electronic, and thermal properties of the
rare-earth-based Heusler compound GdPd 2 Bi. Our experimental findings indicate that our …

We introduce a novel mechanism for itinerant ferromagnetism, which is based on a simple
two-band model, and, by using numerical and analytical methods, we show that the periodic …

The standard self-consistent APW band calculations for LaRh 3 B 2 and CeRh 3 B 2, which
crystallize in the hexagonal CeCo 3 B 2 type structure, have been done using the local …

We have investigated the interesting alloy system Ce (Ru 1− x Rh x) 3 B 2, where the
physical properties change from superconducting to ferromagnetic as x changes from 0 to 1 …
