Crystal field effects in polycrystalline samples of TbNi 5 and ErNi 5 are studied on the basis of inelastic neutron scattering experiments. Using the crystal field parameters derived from the neutron scattering the magnetic contribution of the specific heat capacity, the components of the static susceptibility, as well as the components of the magnetization are calculated, and compared with the corresponding experimental results for single crystals. The quadrupolar contribution of the crystal electric field B 2 0is related to the electric field gradients measured by TDPAC.
