Abstract
We have performed elastic and inelastic neutron-scattering measurement s on the heavy-fermion superconductor URu2Si2 in a magnetic field of 1 2 T along the c-axis of the tetragonal crystal structure. The small or dered moment and the energy gap in the magnetic excitation spectrum sh aw a comparable transition temperature in a magnetic field of 12 T. Th is is in disagreement with recent predictions of a decoupling of the o rdered moment and the energy gap in high magnetic fields.
