Abstract
The enormous magnetoresistance effect at low temperatures in various uranium‐based intermetallic compounds, which exceeds by far the effect found in magnetic‐multilayer systems, is a consequence of the strong 5f conduction electron hybridization. The consequences of spin‐dependent scattering for the giant magnetoresistance (GMR) effect in uranium intermetallics will be discussed and compared with the behavior in multilayer systems. Possible changes of the model parameters to achieve giant magnetoresistance (GMR) effects at higher temperatures, which are desirable for practical applications, are considered.
