Abstract
We have studied the influence of interaction of magnetic ions with conduction electrons on the thermodynamic properties of PrNi5 rare earth intermetallic compound. Starting in the zero approximation from the model of the crystal field and using equations of the thermodynamic perturbation theory, we have derived the formalism for evaluation of the partition function in the n-th order. The computations of higher order terms were performed by symbolic programming. The derived formalism was applied for explanation of temperature dependence of paramagnetic susceptibility, specific heat and electrical resistivity of PrNi5 compound.
