Abstract
The re-entrant superconducting-normal phase boundary of the (La, Ce)Al2 system is reported. The pair breaking parameter deduced from the data increases with decreasing temperature as (-ln T) between 0.1 and 3.30°K. This behaviour suggests that the Kondo temperature TK {less-than or approximate} 0.1°K. No evidence was found for a third transition temperature down to 6 m°K.
