Low temperature ac magnetic susceptibility measurements of the coexistent antiferromagnetic superconductor YbPd2Sn have been made in hydrostatic pressures < 74 kbar in moissanite anvil cells. The superconducting transition temperature is forced to T(SC) = 0 K at a pressure of 58 kbar. The initial suppression of the superconducting transition temperature is corroborated by lower hydrostatic pressure (p < 16 kbar) four point resisitivity measurements, made in a piston cylinder pressure cell. At ambient pressure, in a modest magnetic field of ~ 500 G, this compound displays reentrant superconducting behaviour. This reentrant superconductivity is suppressed to lower temperature and lower magnetic field as pressure is increased. The antiferromagnetic ordering temperature, which was measured at T(N) = 0.12 K at ambient pressure is enhanced, to reach T(N) = 0.58 K at p = 74 kbar. The reasons for the coexistence of superconductivity and antiferromagnetism is discussed in the light of these and previous findings. Also considered is why superconductivity on the border of long range magnetic order is so much rarer in Yb compounds than in Ce compounds. The presence of a new transition visible by ac magnetic susceptibility under pressure and in magnetic fields greater than 1.5 kG is suggested.

We performed the DC-magnetization and neutron scattering experiments under pressure {it P} for a pressure-induced superconductor UGe$_2$. We found that the magnetic moment is enhanced at a characteristic temperature {it T}$^{*}$ in the ferromagnetic
state, where {it T}$^{*}$ is smaller than a Curie temperature {it T}$_{rm C}$. This enhancement becomes remarkable in the vicinity of {it P}$_{rm C}^{*}$ = 1.20 GPa, where {it T}$^{*}$ becomes 0 K and the superconducting transition temperature {it T}$_{rm SC}$ shows a maximum. The characteristic temperature {it T}$^{*}$, which decreases with increasing pressure, also depends on the magnetic field.
The pressure induced superconducting phase diagram is calculated for an extension of the periodic Anderson model (PAM) in the $ U = infty $ limit taking into account the effect of a nearest neighbor attractive interaction between f-electrons. We anal
yze the role of the chemical potential compared to several plots of the f-band density of states and we also found a superconductor-insulator transition induced by pressure when the chemical potential crosses the hybridization gap.
We show that the quasi-skutterudite superconductor Sr_3Ir_4Sn_{13} undergoes a structural transition from a simple cubic parent structure, the I-phase, to a superlattice variant, the I-phase, which has a lattice parameter twice that of the high tempe
rature phase. We argue that the superlattice distortion is associated with a charge density wave transition of the conduction electron system and demonstrate that the superlattice transition temperature T* can be suppressed to zero by combining chemical and physical pressure. This enables the first comprehensive investigation of a superlattice quantum phase transition and its interplay with superconductivity in a cubic charge density wave system.
UTe$_2$ is a recently discovered unconventional superconductor that has attracted much interest due to its many intriguing properties - a large residual density-of-states in the superconducting state, re-entrant superconductivity in high magnetic fie
lds, and potentially spin-triplet topological superconductivity. Our ac calorimetry, electrical resistivity, and x-ray absorption study of UTe$_2$ under applied pressure reveals key new insights on the superconducting and magnetic states surrounding pressure-induced quantum criticality at P$_{c1}$ = 1.3 GPa. First, our specific heat data at low pressures, combined with a phenomenological model, show that pressure alters the balance between two closely competing superconducting orders. Second, near 1.5 GPa we detect two bulk transitions that trigger changes in the resistivity which are consistent with antiferromagnetic order, rather than ferromagnetism. The presence of both bulk magnetism and superconductivity at pressures above P$_{c2}$ = 1.4 GPa results in a significant temperature difference between resistively and thermodynamically determined transitions into the superconducting state, which indicates a suppression of the superconducting volume fraction by magnetic order. Third, the emergence of magnetism is accompanied by an increase in valence towards a U$^{4+}$ (5f2) state, which indicates that UTe$_2$ exhibits intermediate valence at ambient pressure. Our results suggest that antiferromagnetic fluctuations may play a more significant role on the superconducting state of UTe$_2$ than previously thought.
We studied the evolution of superconductivity (sc) and antiferromagnetism (afm) in the heavy fermion compound CePt_3Si with hydrostatic pressure. We present a pressure-temperature phase diagram established by electrical transport measurements. Pressu
re shifts the superconducting transition temperature, T_c, to lower temperatures. Antiferromagnetism is suppressed at a critical pressure P_c=0.5 GPa.
