Abstract
Specific heat of flux-grown single crystals of YbIr2 in zero and applied magnetic field indicates a more complicated magnetic behavior than was inferred from earlier magnetic susceptibility measurements. The possibility of defect-induced Kondo behavior mixed together with some sort of antiferromagnetic local order is discussed.
