SUMMARY:Rare-earth impurities in conventional and unconventional super
 conductors: Pr-based filled-skutterudite and UPd2Al3\, R. G. Herb Cond
 ensed Matter Seminar\, Ilya Eremin\, TU Braunschweig and MPI Physics o
 f Complex Systems\, Dresden
DESCRIPTION:It is well known that scattering by magnetic impurities su
 ppresses conventional s-wave superconductivity by destroying Cooper pa
 irs in a singlet state. This situation\, however\, can change in the c
 ase of paramagnetic non-Kramers rare-earth impurities. In particular\,
  the inelastic charge scattering of conduction electrons from the asph
 erical part of the 4f charge distribution may yield an increase of Tc 
 for superconductors containing an impurity with crystal-field-split en
 ergy levels We analyze this behavior in the Pr-based filled-skutterudi
 te compounds and UPd2Al3 systems.
