Abstract
We have extended the low-temperature magnetic susceptibility and resistivity measurements of Y 1− x U x Pd 3 ( x ≈ 0.2) down to millikelvin temperatures. One sample showed Curie-Weiss-like paramagnetic susceptibility between 50 mK and 2 K. Another small sample appeared to have nearly constant susceptibility between 400 μK and 120 mK. The signal arising from paramagnetic impurities has been estimated from the susceptibility of undoped YPd 3 measured between 600 μK and 170 mK. No signature of superconductivity was observed in the resistivity measurements down to 5 mK. Electron probe microanalysis showed that the sample composition was modulated on a scale of tens of micrometers.
