Field evolution of quantum critical and heavy Fermi-liquid components in the magnetization of the mixed valence compound beta-YbAlB4

Yosuke Matsumoto, K. Kuga, Y. Karaki +5

We present the high-precision magnetization data of the valence fluctuating heavy fermion superconductor -YbAlB in a wide temperature range from 0.02 K to 320 K spanning fo…

Intact Quasiparticles at an Unconventional Quantum Critical Point

M. L. Sutherland, E. C. T. O'Farrell, W. H. Toews +6

We report measurements of in-plane electrical and thermal transport properties in the limit near the unconventional quantum critical point in the heavy-fermion me…

Strong valence fluctuation in the quantum critical heavy fermion superconductor beta-YbAlB4: A hard x-ray photoemission study

M. Okawa, M. Matsunami, K. Ishizaka +12

Electronic structures of the quantum critical superconductor beta-YbAlB4 and its polymorph alpha-YbAlB4 are investigated by using bulk-sensitive hard x-ray photoemission spectrosco…

The role of f -electrons in the Fermi surface of the heavy fermion superconductor beta-YbAlB4

E. C. T. O'Farrell, D. A. Tompsett, S. E. Sebastian +10

We present a detailed quantum oscillation study of the Fermi surface of the recently discovered Yb-based heavy fermion superconductor beta-YbAlB4 . We compare the data, obtained at…

Evidence for the existence of Kondo coupled resonant modes in heavy fermions

L. M. Holanda, J. M. Vargas, C. Rettori +5

Electron Spin Resonance (ESR) can microscopically probe both conduction electrons (ce) and local moment (LM) spin systems in different materials. A ce spin resonance (CESR) is obse…

Low temperature magnetization of the quantum critical heavy fermion superconductor -YbAlB

Y. Matsumoto, K. Kuga, Y. Karaki +2

-YbAlB is the first Yb-based heavy fermion superconductor with mK. We measured low temperature magnetization of high-purity single crystals down to 25…
