Abstract
Susceptibility and magnetization measurements were realized on the equ iatomic ternary orthorhombic RPtGa compounds. LaPtGa is non-magnetic. The compounds with R = Ce, Pr, Nd, Ho and Er do not present any orderi ng temperature down to 5 K. The ordering temperatures of the compounds with R = Gd, Tb, Dy and Tm are 25 K, 20 K, 15 K and 8 K respectively. The paramagnetic Curie temperatures do not have the same sign across the RPtGa series.
