The electrical resistance and magnetoresistance of GdPt2Si2 have been measu
red under high pressure in order to examine the stability of antiferromagne
tism at high pressures and high magnetic fields. The Neel temperature T-N a
nd the metamagnetic transition field H-M were found to increase with increa
sing pressure. These results will be discussed using thermodynamical relati
ons. (C) 2000 Published by Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
