Studies of superconductivity in U(Pt1-xPdx)3 for x < 0.006

1999 
We report measurements of the specific heat and resistivity (T < 1 K) for high quality polycrystals of U(Pt1-xPdx)3 with x < 0.006. The Tc-x phase diagram can be constructed, and superconductivity is destroyed for x = 0.006; this is approximately the same concentration above which the onset of large-moment antiferromagnetism is observed to occur. The splitting of the double superconducting transition increases smoothly with increasing Pd content, and is large enough that for Pd concentrations 0.004 < x < 0.006 only the superconducting A-phase will be present.
