a bulk property. We also observe the evolution with pressure of the magnetic order by neutron scattering and find that the ferromagnetic component of the order is still present at a pressure and temperature where superconductivity is found. In resistivity measurements we identify an additional transition within the ferromagnetic state. The characteristic temperature of this transition, Tx , decreases with pressure and disappears at a pressure Px close to the pressure at which the superconductivity is strongest. Evidence is presented that this transition is also induced by a magnetic field at pressures just above Px . An observed unusual reentrant behavior of the superconductivity with field at a pressure of 13.5 kbar is then qualitatively explained. These results suggest that the transition at Px is intricately related to the appearance of superconductivity, which could explain why the superconductivity is apparently confined to the ferromagnetic phase.
