Specific heat data illustrate several types of itinerant or band magnetism in actinide intermetallic compounds. The results show ferromagnetic spin fluctuations in UAl/sub 2/ with T/sub sf/ equals 25K, itinerant antiferromagnetism in NpSn/sub 3/ with T/sub N/ equals 9.5K and itinerant ferromagnetism in NpOs/sub 2/ with T/sub C/ equals 7.9K. Specific heat studies of dilute U/sub 1-x/Th/sub x/Al/sub 2/ show the theoretically predicted modifications due to impurity scattering in a spin fluctuation system. For NpSn/sub 3/ it is possible to show the BCS nature of the transition due to the gap formation.
