Abstract :
[en] Structure parameters and magnetization in quasistatic fields up to 38 T at 4.2 K are reported for U2T2X compounds with T = Co, Rh, Ni, Pd, Ir, Pt and X = In, Sn, which crystalline in the tetragonal U3Si2 structure. Even the highest applied fields are not sufficient to achieve saturation of the magnetization in any of these compounds of which the majority is antiferromagnetic and some are Pauli paramagnets. The importance of 5f-ligand hybridization for the magnetism in these compounds is discussed.
