Abstract
Susceptibility, chi(T), and resistivity, rho(T), measurements performed on a Ce(Rh0.8Ru0.2)(2)Si-2 single crystal are reported. Both chi(T) and rho(T) show a peak at 12 K, characteristic of antiferromagnetic (AF) order. Howev er, their derivatives below this peak show broad maxima at 8 K, indicating large disorder. The results are compared to those for crystals with differe nt Ru concentrations, especially to pure CeRh2Si2 where two Neel temperatur es T-N1 = 36 K and T-N2 = 26 K were observed.
