Abstract
We have studied two new tetragonal compounds, CeCuAl3 and CeCuGa3, which both display very large specific-heat, c(T), values at low temperature. CeCuAl3 orders antiferromagnetically below T N=3.0 K, while CeCuGa3 remains paramagnetic down to 0.4 K. The large values of c(T) in these and other cerium intermetallics are interpreted as resulting from an unusually small crystal-field splitting and the possible presence of atomic disorder.
