Abstract
Field dependent specific heat measurements and a study of elastic neut ron scattering experiments characterize CePd2Ga3 as a ferromagnetic Ko ndo compound with ordering in the basal plane below T(C) almost-equal- to 6 K. The crystal field ground state of cerium in this hexagonal com pound is the \+/- 1/2> eigenstate. In the scope of a phenomenological model, the coupling constant and the Kondo temperature have been deduc ed.
