Abstract

A simple model taking into account a 6d and a 5f virtual bound state and describing spin-orbit effects for the 5f electrons is developed here in order to explain the magnetic properties of actinide impurities in transition metals and especially the occurrence of magnetism for neptunium and plutonium. The model can account for the decrease of the superconducting temperature of lanthanum-based alloys with actinide impurities from thorium to americium.
