We report the growth of single crystal of CePt by means of the optical floating-zone method and the investigation of the low-temperature properties of this ferromagnetic compound. We combine x-ray diffraction, magnetization, and ac susceptibility measurements at ambient pressure with neutron depolarization studies on polycrystalline samples in diamond anvil cells at high pressure [1] to study the evolution of the magnetic properties. For lab-based measurements of the magnetization under high pressure, a bespoke coil set was converted for use in a Quantum Design Physical Property Measurement System.
