Abstract
The results of heat-capacity C, magnetic susceptibility chi and resist ivity rho measurements above 2 K on the nonstoichiometric alloys, CeFe 0.28Sn2, CeCo0.45Sn2, CeNi0.74Sn2 and CeCu0.5Sn2, are reported. While the Fe alloy appears to be essentially nonmagnetic down to 2 K, with e nhanced low temperature C/T behaviour, the Co, Ni and Cu alloys show t he signatures of magnetic ordering (presumably with dominating ferroma gnetic interaction) below about 5.2, 4.2 and 8.2 K, respectively.
