We report the superconductivity of R-Ba-Cu-O compounds for rare earths R = Sm through Ho. The Nd and Tm compounds were not observed to be superconducting. The Tc onsets for the Eu and Gd compounds are comparable to that observed for Y-Ba-Cu-O. An approximate value for the upper critical field slope of the Gd compound is given. © 1987
