Two-Fluid Model for Heavy Electron Physics

Strongly Correlated Electrons 2016-06-01 v2 Superconductivity

Abstract

The two-fluid model is a phenomenological description of the gradual change of the itinerant and local characters of the f-electrons with temperature and other tuning parameters and has been quite successful in explaining many unusual and puzzling experimental observations in heavy electron materials. We review some of these results and discuss possible implications of the two-fluid model in understanding the microscopic origin of heavy electron physics.
