✦ Synopsis
The crystallographic structure of the uranium monogermanide UGe has been determined from single crystal X-ray diffraction data. UGe crystallizes with the orthorhombic ThIn type (Pbcm), a ؍ 9.827(2) A s , b ؍ 8.932(7) A s , c ؍ 5.841(2) A s , Z ؍ 12. Anisotropic refinements gave R ؍ 0.044 and R ؍ 0.048 for 986 reflections and 37 variables. Uranium and germanium atoms each occupy three crystallographic positions. The uranium U(3) form endless metallic chains running along the c axis, with a U-U interatomic distance of 2.92 A s . Magnetic measurements on an annealed polycrystalline powder indicate a Curie-Weiss-type behavior down to 2 K and an average effective magnetic moment of 2.47 B /U.
