Kondo effect in La1-xCex alloys under pressure

The low-temperature electrical resistance of La1-xCex alloys in both the fcc and the dhcp phase has been measured under pressure. Between normal pressure and 19 kbar the resistance always exhibited a minimum at T-min, which initially increased slightly under pressure, but remained constant above 7 kbar. The resistance R(T) for T<T-min varied as lnT down to the superconducting transition temperature T-c or the limiting measuring temperature (1.3 degrees K). The slope, -dR(T)/d InT, varied appreciably and nonmonotonically with pressure; the relationship between the depression of T-c and -dR(T)/d InT as a function of pressure is discussed.
