We have performed high-pressure, electrical resistivity, and specific heat measurements on CeTe3 single crystals. Two magnetic phases with nonparallel magnetic easy axes were detected in electrical resistivity and specific heat at low temperatures. We also observed the emergence of an additional phase at high pressures and low temperatures and a possible structural phase transition detected at room temperature and at 45 kbar, which can possibly be related with the lowering of the charge-density wave transition temperature known for this compound.

The pressure-induced changes in the temperature-dependent thermopower S(T) and electrical resistivity rho(T) of CeRu_2Ge_2 are described within the single-site Anderson model. The Ce-ions are treated as impurities and the coherent scattering on diffe
rent Ce-sites is neglected. Changing the hybridisation Gamma between the 4f-states and the conduction band accounts for the pressure effect. The transport coefficients are calculated in the non-crossing approximation above the phase boundary line. The theoretical S(T) and rho(T) curves show many features of the experimental data. The seemingly complicated temperature dependence of S(T) and rho(T), and their evolution as a function of pressure, is related to the crossovers between various fixed points of the model.
We present bulk property measurements of NpIr, a newly synthesized member of the Np-Ir binary phase diagram, which is isostructural to the non-centrosymmetric pressure-induced ferromagnetic superconductor UIr. Magnetic susceptibility, electronic tran
sport properties at ambient and high pressure, and heat capacity measurements have been performed for temperature T = 0.55 - 300 K, in a range of magnetic fields up to 14 T and under pressures up to 17.3 GPa. These reveal that NpIr is a moderately heavy fermion Kondo system with strong antiferromagnetic interactions, but there is no evidence of any phase transition down to 0.55 K or at the highest pressure achieved. Experimental results are compared with ab initio calculations of the electronic band structure and lattice heat capacity. An extremely low lattice thermal conductivity is predicted for NpIr at temperatures above 300 K.
Effects of bond randomness and site dilution are systematically investigated for the Kitaev model describing a quantum spin liquid with fractional excitations of itinerant Majorana fermions and localized fluxes. We find that, in the high-temperature
region where the itinerant Majorana fermions release their entropy, both types of disorders suppress the longitudinal thermal conductivity while keeping the specific heat almost unchanged. This suggests that both disorders reduce the mean-free path of the Majorana fermions. On the other hand, in the low-temperature region, the other specific heat peak associated with the entropy release from the localized fluxes is suppressed for both cases, but it is broadened and shifted to the lower-temperature side by the bond randomness, while the position and the width are almost unchanged against the site dilution. Contrasting behavior is also found in the thermal Hall effect under a magnetic field; the half quantization of the thermal Hall conductivity is fragile against the site dilution, while it remains for the bond randomness despite the reduced onset temperature. We discuss the contrasting behavior from the stability of the topological nature by calculating flux condensation and Majorana excitation gap.
We present magnetization, specific heat, resistivity, and Hall effect measurements on the cubic B20 phase of MnGe and CoGe and compare to measurements of isostructural FeGe and electronic structure calculations. In MnGe, we observe a transition to a
magnetic state at $T_c=275$ K as identified by a sharp peak in the ac magnetic susceptibility, as well as second phase transition at lower temperature that becomes apparent only at finite magnetic field. We discover two phase transitions in the specific heat at temperatures much below the Curie temperature one of which we associate with changes to the magnetic structure. A magnetic field reduces the temperature of this transition which corresponds closely to the sharp peak observed in the ac susceptibility at fields above 5 kOe. The second of these transitions is not affected by the application of field and has no signature in the magnetic properties or our crystal structure parameters. Transport measurements indicate that MnGe is metal with a negative magnetoresistance similar to that seen in isostructural FeGe and MnSi. Hall effect measurements reveal a carrier concentration of about 0.5 carriers per formula unit also similar to that found in FeGe and MnSi. CoGe is shown to be a low carrier density metal with a very small, nearly temperature independent diamagnetic susceptibility.
We report on structural, magnetic and transport properties of a new set of the high-pressuresynthesized compounds Mn$_{1-x}$Rh$x$Ge ($0 leq x leq 1$) with the chiral magnetic ordering. The magnetic and transport properties depend substantially on the
concentration of rhodium (x) and the pressure. The saturation magnetic moment corresponds to a known high-spin value for pristine MnGe (x = 0) and decreases almost linearly with increasing concentration $x$. In addition, XMCD spectra taken at 10 K and 2 T indicate magnetic polarization of the Rh 4d electron states and Ge $4p$ states, which decreases with $x$, too. In rhodium rich compounds ($x geq 0.5$) the temperature of the magnetic ordering increases significantly with pressure, whereas in manganese rich compounds ($x < 0.5$) the temperature decreases. Three different tendencies are also found for several structural and transport properties. In the intermediate range ($0.3 leq x leq 0.7$) samples are semiconducting in the paramagnetic phase, but become metallic in the magnetically ordered state. We carried out ab initio density-functional calculations of Mn$_{1-x}$Rh$_x$Ge at various concentrations $x$ and traced the evolution of electronic and magnetic properties. The calculation results are in good agreement with the measured magnetic moments and qualitatively explain the observed trends in transport properties.
