Abstract: Alloying ferromagnetic CePd (Tc = 6.5 K) with the intermediate valence compound CeNi compresses the lattice, though the ferromagnetic order is present up to x = 0.94 in CePd1−xNix. We report here the competition of magnetic order and Kondo effect, through specific heat, magnetization and resistivity measurements. Detailed results gathered on the x = 0.95 sample show several features suggesting a non-Fermi liquid behaviour which may be due to the proximity to magnetic order: ϱ = ϱ0 + AT1.1 (3 < T ⩽ 30 K) and C/T ∝ − ln T(T ⩾ 0.9 K). At lower temperatures C/T tends to saturate at a value of 0.225 J/K2 mol, about three times the value observed for CeNi.
