Abstract
Heat capacity and electrical resistivity studies have been performed on the tetragonal ternary NdRu2Si2, NdRu2Ge2 and NdCo2Ge2 compounds. Two magnetic phase transitions are observed at temperatures 10 K and 23 K for NdRu2Si2 and at 10 K and 17 K for NdRu2Ge2. One transition is seen for NdCo2Ge2 (at 28 K).
