Abstract
Measurements of the magnetic force and magnetic torque acting upon a high quality single crystal of UBe13 have been made with a Si cantilever capacitive magnetometer from 1.2 K to about 40 mK in a field of 10 T. The torque is found to approach low temperature saturation likeT 2; an identical temperature dependence is observed for the magnetic force and hence the susceptibility. While this temperature dependence of the susceptibility is consistent with a Fermi liquid ground state for UBe13 it also suggests, for this particular experiment, a dominant presence of magnetic torque in the magnetic force data.
