β¦ Synopsis
The possibility of the coexistence of antiferromagnetic order and superconductivity in ternary rare earth compounds is examined within the framework of our previous papers on the ferromagnetic case. It is demonstrated that antiferromagnetic ordering does not destroy the superconducting state, which coincides with recent experimental facts. The phase diagram and several thermodynamic properties are investigated. We calculate the upper critical field I-L2 in the dirty limit, and compare it with the experimental data on Gdl.eMo6Ss. Some of the characteristic features of I-L2 can be explained qualitatively.

In an earlier paper a theory of superconductivity in ternary rare-earth compounds which examined the effects of elastic scattering of conduction electrons by localized 4f electrons was presented. In this paper the theory is extended by treating both elastic and inelastic scattering. Expressions for
