Abstract
Both anisotropic superconducting (SC) states of heavy electrons with odd-parity pairing and with even-parity pairing are shown to have an inherent instability towards the spin-density wave which generally coexists with the SC state. A model is presented which contains an on-site repulsion characteristic of heavy-fermion materials, in addition to an intersite attraction. The second transition below the SC transition observed in is interpreted in terms of the spin-density-wave instability.
