The heat capacity in the applied magnetic field up to 9 T, susceptibility and magnetization of polycrystalline CeCu4Ga 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 eff = 2.53 µB/f.u. The experimental value of µ eff is close to the calculated one for a free Ce 3+ ion (µ eff = 2.54 µB/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 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 mol
