Abstract
Unusually strong magnetic anisotropies in CeSb and CeBi are accounted for by the anisotropic mixing mechanism between the 4f states and the valence bands. The anisotropy energy of CeSb is calculated using the valence bands obtained by the APW band calculations and good agreement with the observed large anisotropy is obtained. This mechanism is consistent with the fact that no such strong anisotropy is found in light Ce pnictides.
