Abstract
We measured the specific heat. thermal expansion coefficient, magnetization , electrical resistivity, magnetoresistance and de Haas-van Alphen (dHvA) e ffect in PrSn3. The dense Kondo effect was confirmed from a negative magnet oresistance and the presence of heavy electrons with the cyclotron effectiv e mass of 8-9m(o) for the main Fermi surface. A magnetic anisotropy was fou nd below TN, having an easy axis of <1 1 0 >. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V . All rights reserved.
