The vast majority of heavy fermion compounds investigated in close proximity to a magnetic quantum phase transition exhibit only one crystallographic site for the Rare Earth or Actinide ion. Here we present results on ongoing research on several Ce–based compounds with multiple Ce-sites. Recent ¹¹⁵In NQR/NMR results on Ce₃PtIn₁₁ which has two inequivalent Ce-sites, show evidence for two quantum critical points. Each can be associated with a particular Ce-site. Our investigation on a series of (Ce_1−xLa_x)₃Al₁₁ reveals that, up to x = 0.25, we substitute La for Ce on the Ce2 site only. As the parent compound Ce₃Al₁₁ has 2 sites (Ce1: 2 atoms/f.u.; Ce2: 1 atom/f.u.) we thus can follow the evolution of removing one Kondo-site step by step. Finally we will present our first results on Ce₃Rh₅Ge₇. This novel compound harbors 3 inequivalent Ce-sites.
