Abstract
The electrical resistivity of some intermetallic compounds RAg (R=Pr, Nd, Gd, Dy, Er, Lu) has been measured in the approximate range 10-800 K. While LuAg was fitted to the Bloch-Gruneisen formula, for all the others the experimental data can be mainly described as a sum of the phonon scattering term and the magnetic contribution. Crystal field effects occur for the Pr, Nd, Dy and Er compounds. A new examination of the previously studied compounds LaAg and CeAg provided the evaluation of the 4f instability contribution.Keywords
