Abstract

The angular dependence of the de Haas-van Alphen (dHvA) frequency has been studied in the Kondo lattice compound CeB 6 . The Fermi surface of CeB 6 is quite similar to that of PrB 6 or LaB 6 , with an electron pocket of almost the same size as that in PrB 6 . We have also determined the field dependence of the heavy cyclotron mass for the main belly orbit in CeB 6 and have confirmed a discrepancy between the present mass and the one estimated from the low temperature specific heat coefficient.
