Abstract
The magnetoresistance of seven icosahedral AlPdRe samples with residua l resistivity ratios (RRR) between 2 and 45 has been measured in the t emperature range 0.23 K to 4.2 K in magnetic fields up to 12 T. The re sults indicate that weak localization breaks down when RRR exceeds val ues in the range 5 to 10.
