The low-temperature phase transition in NpO
has attracted much attention as a promising candidate for a new class of phase transitions associated with octupolar degrees of freedom. In order to elucidate the nature of this exotic phase transition in NpO
, we have initiated the first
O-NMR measurements on this system using a powder sample. From the
O-NMR spectrum, the occurrence of two inequivalent oxygen sites has been confirmed below
= 26 K. It has also been shown that the temperature and field dependence of the
O NMR spectrum can be understood by considering an unconventional hyperfine interaction between the
O nuclear spins and field-induced antiferromagnetic moments arising from the longitudinal triple-
antiferro-quadrupolar order. These NMR results give strong evidence for the occurrence of the longitudinal triple-
multipole structure in NpO
. We will also discuss our recent
O-NMR results in a single crystal.

Novel magnetism and exotic superconductivity in actinide compounds have attracted much attention. Among several interesting properties of actinide materials, we review two topics from a microscopic view point. One is multipole ordering in cubic systems, such as peculiar magnetism in NpO
. The other topic is a potential role of multipole fluctuations in tetragonal systems. Such fluctuations characteristic to
-electron systems may relate to the superconductivity of the so-called Pu-115 materials (PuCoGa
and PuRhGa
) with relatively high transition temperatures.

We report on the Magnetism, magnetic penetration depth and the Knight shift in polycrystalline sample of CePt
Si by means of muon spin rotation and relaxation method. The appearance of the internal field under the zero magnetic field in whole volume of the specimen, was observed, which indicating clear evidence of antiferromagnetism. The muon Knight shift was measured down to 20mK at 17kOe. Three different frequencies are seen in the muon spin rotation spectra, which depend on the temperature. The symmetry of the superconducting Cooper pair will be discussed.

The low-dimensional systems exhibit wide-variety of physical properties. In the antiferromagnetic triangular lattice, for instance, resonating valence bond state is expected, furthermore, in one-dimensional (1D) systems, metal-insulator transition (Peierls transition) occurs due to charge-lattice couplings. Up to now, the study of low-dimensional systems has been mostly performed in oxides and organic compounds, but it is rare in the rare-earth and actinide intermetallics. To looking for the novel low-dimensionality in
-electron systems, we focused on the UIr
B
, and NMR measurement was carried out. From Knight shift and nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rates, ferromagnetic correlations develop above 50 K, but below 50 K, the emergence of antiferromagnetic correlations was clarified along with the saturation of ferromagnetic correlations. The possible model to explain the obtained result is nesting effect on the 1D Fermi surface, and it is expected that UIr
B
will be the typical compound to investigate the physical properties of 1D
-electrons systems.

Recently, new superconductors have been discovered in Pu-based HoCoGa
(115) structure compounds: PuCoGa
(
) and PuRhGa
(
). The discovery has stimulated a lot of interest in actinide compounds. We report NMR measurements on a high-quality single crystal sample of the non-superconducting U- and Np-based 115 compounds. In order to elucidate universal magnetic properties and the origin of superconductivity in the 115 families, spin-lattice relaxation and Knight shift measurements have been performed systematically in the non-superconducting 115 compounds. Comparison of dynamical properties with the superconducting Pu115 compounds will be presented.

Recently quasi-two-dimensional electron state in rare earth and actinide compounds with HoCoGa
-type tetragonal crystal structure was attracted a lot attention in relation to heavy fermion superconductivity observed in CeCoIn
, CeIrIn
and PuCoGa
. In order to elucidate the role of
electron in these compounds, it is necessary to compare their electronic state with that of lanthanum and thorium compounds which do not possess the
-electrons. The number of valence electrons in the thorium compound is the same as that of the corresponding 4
-itinerant cerium compound. We have recently tried to make thorium 115 compounds by indium flux method and have succeeded in discovering the new material of ThRhIn
. Crystal structure and quality were confirmed by X-ray diffraction, fluorescent X-ray analysis and EPMA. The lattice parameters were determined to be 4.681(6)
and

We have investigated the physical properties of Heavy Fermion superconductors by the ac calorimetry under high pressure using a thermocouple. The method is powerful tool since the high sensitive measurement of the heat capacity is possible and the precise pressure dependence of transition temperatures such as the superconducting transition can be determined. In this conference, I would like to report our investigations on the heavy fermion superconductors CePt
Si, CeNiGe
and UIr. We have made pressure phase diagram of these compounds and discuss the relation between the magnetism and superconductivity.

UPd
Al
is an attractive material because of the coexistence of the antiferromagnetic order below
= 14.5 K and superconductivity below
= 2 K. In order to discuss the coupling between magnetism and superconductivity by resonant magnetic X-ray scattering (RMXS), nature of the resonance at each absorption edge should be clarified before the measurements across

to
edge at
. In addition to a huge resonance at
-edge, we observed a resonant feature at
-edge which corresponds to the transition from
to
orbitals, while resonance at
-edge and
-edge is rather small.

Al
using soft X-ray synchrotron radiation from BL23SU of SPring-8. UPd
Al
is an HF uranium compound which has transitions into an antiferromagnetic phase at
K and into a superconducting phase at
=2 K. To describe the various properties of this compound, the dual model for U 5
states is proposed. In this model, two of the three U 5f states are in a localized state while the third electron has delocalized character. We have obtained U 5f sensitive band structure of UPd
Al
by SX-ARPES, and the results are compared with this scenario. Temperature dependence of the U 5
electronic structure in this compound is also discussed.

We calculate energy band structure and the Fermi surface of PrCoIn
by using a self-consistent relativistic linear augmented-plane-wave method with the exchange and correlation potential in a local density approximation. It is found in common with other rare-earth and actinide compounds with the HoCoGa
-type tetragonal crystal structure that the energy bands in the vicinity of the Fermi level are mainly due to the large hybridization between Pr
and In
electrons. The Fermi surface is found to consist of a large quasi-two-dimensional hole sheet. We discuss the comparison of our Fermi surface with experimental results on PrCoIn
.

and PuRhGa
promoted us to extend our research to other actinide compounds. We recently succeeded in growing single crystals of PuRhGa
and performed magnetic measurements and NMR study both in the normal and superconducting states in collaboration with Tohoku university. The magnetic susceptibility consists of Curie-Weiss and temperature-independent terms where the former corresponds to the paramagnetic effective moment close to the 5
configuration. On the other hand, the superconducting upper critical field is anisotropic. It is explained by the anisotropic mass model with an effective mass ratio of 4, indicating the presence of quasi-two-dimensional Fermi surfaces. These characteristics are reminiscent of those observed in CeCoIn
.
