An investigation of the structural, thermodynamic, and electronic transport properties of the isoelectronic chemical substitution series Ce(Pd$_{1-x}$Ni$_x$)$_2$P$_2$ is reported, where a possible ferromagnetic quantum critical point is…
Heat and charge transport were used to probe the magnetic field-tuned quantum critical point in the heavy-fermion metal CeCoIn$_5$. A comparison of electrical and thermal resistivities reveals three characteristic energy scales. A…
The magnetic, transport, and thermal properties of single crystals of the series Fe(Ga1-xGex)3 are reported. Pure FeGa3 is a nonmagnetic semiconductor, that when doped with small concentrations of Ge (extrinsic electrons), passes through an…
We study the quantum phase transitions in the nickel pnctides, CeNi$_{2-\delta}$(As$_{1-x}$P$_{x}$)$_{2}$ ($\delta$ $\approx$ 0.07-0.22). This series displays the distinct heavy fermion behavior in the rarely studied parameter regime of…
We propose a model for the non-Fermi behavior in the proximity of the quantum phase transition induced by the strong polarization of the electrons due to local magnetic moments. The self - consistent Renormalization - Group methods have…
Polycrystalline samples of Ce(Cu$_{1-x}$Co$_x$)$_2$Ge$_2$ were investigated by means of electrical resistivity $\rho$($T$), magnetic susceptibility $\chi$($T$), specific heat $C$$_p$($T$) and thermo electric power $S$($T$) measurements. The…
Realizing a quantum critical point (QCP) in clean ferromagnetic (FM) metals has remained elusive due to the coupling of magnetization to the electronic soft modes that drive the transition to be of first order. However, by introducing a…
We have studied the evolution of the weakly first order antiferromagnetic transition in heavy fermion Yb$_3$Pt$_4$ using a combination of specific heat, magnetic susceptibility, and electrical resistivity experiments. We show that magnetic…
We have carried out a comprehensive study of the UCo1-xFexGe series across the entire range of compositions 0 <= x <= 1, and report the results of x-ray diffraction, magnetization, specific heat, and electrical resistivity to uncover the…
Temperature dependence of resistivity of single crystals of Fe$_{1-x}$Co$_x$Se and FeSe$_{1-y}$S$_y$ is studied in detail under zero and high magnetic field (magnetoresistance), the latter of which enables to monitor the temperature ($T$)…
We construct a two-dimensional lattice model of fermions coupled to Ising ferromagnetic critical fluctuations. Using extensive sign-problem-free quantum Monte Carlo simulations, we show that the model realizes a continuous itinerant quantum…
We report a chemical substitution-induced ferromagnetic quantum critical point in polycrystalline Ni$_{1-x}$Rh$_x$ alloys. Through magnetization and muon spin relaxation measurements, we show that the ferromagnetic ordering temperature is…
We combine structural and magnetic measurements to compare the different magnetic phase diagrams between the pressure and substitution studies in CeTiGe3. We report on the structural, magnetic, and electrical transport properties of single…
We report extensive studies on the CeCo$_{1-x}$Fe$_{x}$Ge$_3$ alloys, which show quantum critical point (QCP) due to damping the antiferromagnetic order in CeCoGe$_3$ down to 0 K by doping with the paramagnetic CeFeGe$_3$ compound. The…
$^{51}$V nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and magnetization studies on CeTi$_{1-x}$V$_x$Ge$_3$ have been performed to explore the evolution from the ferromagnetic ($x = 0.113$) to the antiferromagnetic Kondo lattice state ($x = 1$), with…
The heavy-fermion compound CeRhIn$_5$ can be tuned through a quantum critical point, when In is partially replaced by Sn. This way additional charge carriers are introduced and the antiferromagnetic order is gradually suppressed to zero…
We propose that proximity of the first-order transition manifested by the quantum tricritical point (QTCP) explains non-Fermi-liquid properties of YbRh2Si2. Here, at the QTCP, a continuous phase transition changes into first order at zero…
The heavy-fermion metal CePd_{1-x}Rh_x evolves from ferromagnetism at x=0 to a non-magnetic state at some critical concentration x_c. Utilizing the quasiparticle picture and the concept of fermion condensation quantum phase transition…
The highest antiferromagnetic (AFM) temperature in Ce based compounds has been reported for CeScGe with Tn=47K, but its local or itinerant nature was not deeply investigated yet. In order to shed more light into this unusually high ordering…
The behavior of the electronic system of heavy fermion metals is considered. We show that there exist at least two main types of the behavior when the system is nearby a quantum critical point which can be identified as the fermion…
