The electrical resistivity of Pt&sngbnd;Ni alloys containing approximately 30, 35, 37, 40, 45, and 50 at.% Ni has been measured between 1.4° and 4.2°K. A clear resistance minimum is found for the two ferromagnetic samples, 45 and 50 at.% Ni, at 3.6° and 2.7°K, respectively. Although no minimum was found for the paramagnetic alloys, there was evidence of a turnup at low temperatures. All of the data could be fitted by the equation &rgr; = &rgr;0+AT2−BInT. Both coefficients,AandB, increase rapidly as the critical concentration for ferromagnetism is approached from both the paramagnetic and ferromagnetic sides. The application of a 20‐kG field to the 50 at.% Ni sample produced no detectable change in the temperature dependence of the resistivity. Ordering of this sample (by annealing at 600°C) yielded a paramagnetic state for which the coefficientAincreased by a factor of three and the InTterm was no longer observed. Although theT2term originates from electron‐electron scattering, the origin of the InTterm is not clear at the present.
