Abstract: | Crystal fields are included in a model calculation of the magnetization of the Kondo compound CeAl3. Using parameters taken from experiment, the predicted magnetization at T=1.4 and 4.2K for applied magnetic fields H less than 10T is in good agreement with experiment. Using this magnetization, the model also correctly predicts the decrease in the specific heat C as a function of H for 0.35 ?T?0.9K. In particular, it correctly predicts that this decrease is approximately linear in H and that is approximately temperature independent. |
