Abstract
The results of magnetization, magnetic susceptibility, resistivity and magnetoresistivity measurements for alpha USe2,, beta USe2, U3Se5 and USe3 single crystals are reported. For alpha USe2, (X)(T) goes throug h a maximum at T = 13 K, which may indicate an antiferromagnetic trans ition. beta USe2 and U3Se5 are ferromagnets with T-C = 14 and 24 K, re spectively. The temperature dependences of the electrical resistivity, measured for all compounds on single-crystalline samples, reveal semi conducting properties of alpha USe2, beta USe2 and U3Se5, but USe3 beh aves as an insulator.
