Abstract

We have measured ultrasonic attenuation and ac susceptibility simultaneously on a UPt₃ single crystal, in various constant magnetic fields at 293 MHz, and in zero field at several frequencies. The temperature of the attenuation maximum T_mα appears lower than (or very close to) the susceptibility transition temperature T_cχ. A breakpoint is defined, which occurs always at a lower temperature T_bp than T_mα. The shift of this breakpoint, T_cχ -T _bp, exhibits a small frequency dependence.
