Magnetic field tuning of antiferromagnetic Yb3Pt4

TL;DR: In this article, specific heat, magnetization, magnetocaloric effect, and magnetic neutron diffraction carried out on single crystals of antiferromagnetic Yb${}_{3}$Pt${}-4}, where highly localized Yb moments order at 2.4$ K in zero field was suppressed by applying a field of 1.85 T in the $ab$ plane.

Field Tuning and Quantum Criticality in Ytterbium Based Heavy Electron Compounds

TL;DR: In this paper, the results of magnetization, specific heat, and inelastic neutron scattering measurements conducted on Yb3Pt4, Yb2Pt2Pb and Yb5Pt9 were reviewed, showing that the Yb moments in these heavy electron compounds are appreciably localized, at least in their paramagnetic states.

TL;DR: In this paper , a ternary platinum borides were synthesized by arc melting of constituent elements and subsequent annealing at 1020 K. The unit cell of the unit cell is composed of two structural fragments alternating along the a$ axis and extending infinitively along the b$ axis: (i) columns of face-fused, boron-filled and empty edge-connected trigonal metal prisms, and (ii) zigzag chains of B-filled trigonal prisms connected by common edges.

Universal relationship of the resistivity and specific heat in heavy-Fermion compounds

TL;DR: In this paper, it was observed that the ratio, A/γ2, has a common value of 1.0 × 10−5 μωcm (mole K/mJ)2 for all of the heavy Fermion compounds.

Coexistence of superconductivity and ferromagnetism in URhGe

TL;DR: It is shown that the ferromagnet URhGe is superconducting at ambient pressure, and the thermodynamic signature of the transition is found—its form is consistent with asuperconducting pairing of a spin-triplet type, although further testing with cleaner samples is needed to confirm this.

Magnetic-field induced quantum critical point in YbRh2Si2

TL;DR: Low-temperature calorimetric, magnetic, and resistivity measurements on the antiferromagnetic heavy-fermion metal YbRh( 2)Si(2) ( T(N)=70 mK) as a function of magnetic field B suggest singular scattering at the whole Fermi surface and a divergence of the heavy quasiparticle mass.
