A variety of physicochemical analysis techniques were employed in constructing the isothermal cross-section of the phase diagram of the Yb-Pd-Ge system 870 K. Several new ternary compounds Yb 1 0 Pd 7 5 Ge 1 5 , Yb 2 0 Pd 2 0 Ge 6 0 , Yb 2 PdGe 6 , YbPdGe 2 , YbPd 2 Ge, YbPdGe, YbPd 0 . 5 Ge 1 . 5 , Yb 3 3 . 3 Pd 2 8 Ge 3 8 . 7 and Tb 4 2 Pd 1 3 Ge 4 5 were detected. The temperature dependences of the specific electric resistance were investigated for the alloys on the basis of YbPdGe, YbPd 2 Ge and YbPd 2 Ge 2 compounds as well as for Yb(PdGe) 3 (alloy from the range of solid solutions based on YbPd 3 ).
