摘要
We report on results of low-temperature specific heat experiments on single crystals of the cubic alloy CeIn3-xSnx (x = 0.55,0.60, 0.65, and 0.80). The measurements support three-dimensional critical spin fluctuations in the vicinity of the magnetic instability, i.e. for x(c) approximate to 0.67, where the antiferromagnetic order vanishes.
