We report the magnetic properties strongly varying with the rare-earth elements in the newly found ternary compounds $R$Al$_{0.9}$Si$_{1.1}$, which crystallize in the tetragonal $alpha$-ThSi$_2$-type structure. For $R$ = Ce the alloy has a weak ferromagnetism below 11 K and for $R$ = Pr it orders ferromagnetically at 17 K, while for $R$ = Gd it is antiferromagnetic with $T_{rm N}$ = 30.5 K. In addition, we find no field effect on $T_{rm N}$ of $R$ = Gd because of the large internal mean field, but significant changes in the magnetic properties of $R$ = Ce and Pr.

The antiferromagnetic transition is investigated in the rare-earth (R) tritelluride RTe3 family of charge density wave (CDW) compounds via specific heat, magnetization and resistivity measurements. Observation of the opening of a superzone gap in the
resistivity of DyTe3 indicates that additional nesting of the reconstructed Fermi surface in the CDW state plays an important role in determining the magnetic structure.
Valency of Ce and Pr in LRu4P12 (L = Ce and Pr) was studied by L2,3-edge x-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy. The Ce-L3 XANES spectrum suggests that Ce is mainly trivalent, but the 4f state strongly hybridizes with ligand orbita
ls. The band gap of CeRu4P12 seems to be formed by strong hybridization of 4f electrons. Pr-L2 XANES spectra indicate that Pr exists in trivalent state over a wide range in temperature, 20 < T < 300 K. We find that the metal-insulator (MI) transition at TMI = 60 K in PrRu4P12 does not originate from Pr valence fluctuation.
The Ce(1-x)LaxCrGe3 (x = 0, 0.19, 0.43, 0.58 and 1) intermetallic compound system has been investigated by magnetization measurements and neutron scattering techniques to determine the effect of La-doping on the magnetic ordering and exchange interac
tion between Cr ions. The structural and magnetic characterization in this series was first verified by X-ray diffraction and bulk magnetization measurements. The samples exhibit the known hexagonal perovskite structure (P63/mmc space group) and have a single magnetic phase according to magnetization measurements. In this work, the ferromagnetic ordering temperature for Cr evolves smoothly from a range of 68 K to 77 K for CeCrGe3 to a range of 91 K to 96 K for LaCrGe3 as La replaces Ce. Magnetization results indicate the formation of domain walls below the transition temperature for all the Ce(1-x)LaxCrGe3 systems investigated. Neutron results indicate ordered magnetic Cr moments aligned along the c axis for the x = 1 LaCrGe3 system, as well as for x = 0.19, 0.43, and 0.58, which contrasts with the x = 0 CeCrGe3 where the moments order in the ab plane.
We have synthesized R5Pb3 (R = Gd-Tm) compounds in polycrystalline form and performed structural analysis, magnetization, and neutron scattering measurements. For all R5Pb3 reported here the Weiss temperatures {theta}W are several times smaller than
the ordering temperatures TORD, while the latter are remarkably high (TORD up to 275 K for R = Gd) compared to other known R-M binaries (M = Si, Ge, Sn and Sb). The magnetic order changes from ferromagnetic in R = Gd, Tb to antiferromagnetic in R = Dy-Tm. Below TORD, the magnetization measurements together with neutron powder diffraction show complex magnetic behavior and reveal the existence of up to three additional phase transitions. We believe this to be a result of crystal electric field effects responsible for high magnetocrystalline anisotropy. The R5Pb3 magnetic unit cells for R = Tb-Tm can be described with incommensurate magnetic wave vectors with spin modulation either along the c axis in R = Tb, Er and Tm or within the ab-plane in R = Dy and Ho.
The phonon and thermodynamic properties of rare-earth-aluminum intermetallics AlRE (RE=Y, Gd, Pr, Yb) with B2-type structure are investigated by performing density functional theory and density functional perturbation theory within the quasiharmonic
approximation. The phonon spectra and phonon density of states, including the phonon partial density of states and total density of states, have been discussed. Our results demonstrate that the density of states is mostly composed of Al states at the high frequency. The temperature dependence of various quantities such as the thermal expansions, the heat capacities at constant volume and constant pressure, the isothermal bulk modulus, and the entropy are obtained. The electronic contribution to the specific heat is discussed, and the presented results show that the thermal electronic excitation affecting the thermal properties is inessential.
