The low temperature specific heat of some cerium and lanthanum Laves phase compounds

“…The most plausible explanation of the peak In the specific heat is that it is due to magnetic ordering. The application of a field to a material which has a Neel point causes the Neel point of the material to be lowered (30). The high temperature 77-400°K data on CePt2 shows some curva ture and an oscillatory behavior of 1/X versus T (7).…”
