摘要：

Using signatures in the longitudinal sound velocity we have mapped for the first time experimentally the pressure dependence of the phase boundaries in superconducting UPt3 for magnetic field H parallel to the a axis. With increasing pressure P-c parallel to the c axis, the tetracritical point in the H-T plane is observed to shift to lower H and higher temperature T. At a critical stress, P-c similar to 2.6 kbar the tetracritical point reaches the H = O, P-c - T plane, and our measurements prove coexistence of at least four phases in this plane as well.
