- The heat capacity in the applied magnetic field up to 9 T, susceptibility and magnetization of polycrystalline $CeCu_{4}Ga$ are presented. Magnetic ordering was not observed down to 2 K. For temperature T < 200 K a Curie-Weiss behavior is observable giving an effective magnetic moment $μ_\text{eff}$ =2.53 $μ_{B}$/f.u. The experimental value of $μ_\text{eff}$ is close to the calculated one for a free $Ce^{3+}$ ion ($μ_\text{eff}$ = 2.54 $μ_{B}$/f.u.), thus indicating the presence of well localized magnetic moments carried by the stable $Ce^{3+}$ ions. At low temperatures the electronic heat capacity coefficient value depends strongly on the temperature range used for the extrapolation and applied magnetic field. We observe a typical heavy fermion behavior with γ value of about 380 mJ $\text{mol}^{-1} K^{-2}$ obtained from extrapolation to T = 0 K of the temperature range above 7 K. However, extrapolation of the lowest temperatures range yields the γ value of 3.3 J $\text{mol}^{-1} K^{-2}$.
