CeNi 5 as a mother compound is well known as a Stoner enhanced paramagnet characterized by the spin fluctuation contribution on its transport properties. Previous work on CeNi 4 Cr compound showed typical features of mixed valence systems with indication of tendency to heavy fermion behavior [1]. The theoretically predicted phase transition into antiferromagnetic order wasn’t observed down to 2 K. In this work we present the effect of spin fluctuations of the CeNi 4 Cr compound focused on its thermodynamic properties
