Abstract
The electrical resistivity of the magnetically ordered CeCu5Au has been inv estigated under pressure up to 8.5 GPa. In the magnetically ordered region (p < 3.4GPa) the residual resistivity rho (0) shows a pronounced maximum as a function of pressure. Even in the non-magnetic region rho (0) decreases monotonically by more than a factor of three. These two effects can be qual itatively explained in terms of the interplay of pressure, magnetism and di sorder in a strongly correlated electron system with weak disorder.
