Abstract: The influence of hydrostatic pressure on the transport properties of (La1-xRx)0.67Ca0.33MnO3 ( ,Tb) ferromagnetic manganites is investigated. The enhancement of the Curie temperature TC under pressure agrees with previous data. In the paramagnetic range, the resistivity can be represented by a Mott localisation law, with a characteristic temperature T0 decreasing with pressure. The variation of TC with pressure is compared to the effect induced by replacing La by a magnetic rare earth in (La1-xRx)0.67Sr0.33MnO3 manganites ( , ..., Tm). The main effect is not related to the decrease of the mean radius of the cation, but to an additional scattering by the magnetic moment of the rare earth.
