Abstract :
[en] Structural data and resistivity studies of NpNi2Al3, NpxU1−xPd2Al3 (x = 1, 0.5, 0.3, 0.1) and PuPd2Al3 are reported. The resistivity curves display Kondo features and clear anomalies at the magnetic transition. Moreover, at least two kinds of magnetic structure exist in these compounds, one favouring the electrical conductivity and the other decreasing it.
