Abstract: The specific heat of CeRu2 and La5Rh4 of the superconducting state does not follow a BCS-exponential temperature dependence, but a T2 law. At very low temperature (T = 0.1 Tc), CeRu2 shows a linear T dependence, which corresponds to a constant density of states. The experimental results are well described by the theoretical predictions for an axial state (CeRu2) and polar state (La5Rh4) superconductors. The small Sommerfeld coefficient of La5Rh4(? = 3.4 mJ/K2 La at.) excludes this compound from the heavy fermion superconductors.
