Near quantum Lifshitz points the stiffness of the lifetime of the spin fluctuations is very small. This gives rise to a regime where the critical fluctuations are local in space but extended along the time directions. The Fermi liquid…

Quantum criticality, being important as an indicator of new quantum matters emerging, is known to occur only at zero or low temperature. We find that a quantum probe, if its coherence time is long, can detect quantum criticality at…
