Abstract
We report electrical resistivity and thermopower measurements of two alloy of the(UxY1-x)Ru2Si2 alloy system (x = 0.08 and 0.30). For x = 0.08, we hav e found evidences for impurity Kondo scattering from the lowest lying CEF l evels with T-K = 10 K. The sample with x = 0.3 shows an antiferromagnetic t ransition at 15.3 K. Thereby we conclude that the two energy scales, T-K an d T-RRKY are close to and compete against each other in dilute U of YRu2Si2 . (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
