Abstract
Under ambient pressure the only lanthanide known to superconduct is La, the superconducting state for the remaining lanthanides being suppressed by their strong local-moment magnetism . Except for possibly Ce, this magnetism is conventional and approximately obeys de Gennes scaling. Under high pressure both Ce and Eu exhibit superconductivity that may be unconventional, whereas the magnetic states of Dy, Tb, and Nd become anomalous, the magnetic ordering temperature of Dy surpassing ambient temperature at Mbar pressures. We suggest that these anomalously high magnetic ordering temperatures are an heretofore unrecognized feature of the Kondo lattice state.
