Abstract
The strain-spin density wave coupling in heavy fermion systems in the vicinity of the magnetic transition temperature is discussed. Through a comparison of the effects in UPd2Al3 and URu2Si2 it is Shown that in the latter substance the magnetic ordering cannot be a conventional s pin density wave state. The influence of a spin nematic ordering on el astic constants is discussed.
