An octupole ordering model is studied by the mean field theory, and its relevance to the phase IV of CexLa1-xB6 is discussed. The observed lattice distortion along the [111] direction is interpreted in terms of the \Gamma_{5g}-type…
CeB6, a typical Gamma_8-quartet system, exhibits a mysterious antiferroquadrupolar ordered phase in magnetic fields, which is considered as originating from the T_{xyz}-type magnetic octupole moment induced by the field. By resonant x-ray…
We study f-electron lattice models which are capable of supporting octupolar, as well dipolar and quadrupolar, order. Analyzing the properties of the Gamma8 ground state quartet, we find that (111)-type combinations of the Gamma5 octupoles…
Possibility of a novel pseudo-scalar (octupole) order is studied theoretically for orbitally degenerate systems with strong spin-orbit coupling such as Ce$_x$La$_{1-x}$B$_6$. It is discussed that coexistence of an octupole order parameter…
The azimuthal angle dependence observed in the resonant X-ray scattering in phase IV of Ce$_{0.7}$La$_{0.3}$B$_6$ is analyzed theoretically. It is shown that the peculiar angle dependence observed in the E2 channel is consistent with the…
Motivated by the time-reversal symmetry breaking signal in muon spin relaxation below a transition temperature without accompanying noticeable magnetic Bragg peaks in $5d^2$ Os double perovskites, a rare ferro-octupolar order was proposed…
In order to investigate multipole ordering in f-electron systems from a microscopic viewpoint, we study the so-called \Gamma_8 models on three kinds of lattices, simple cubic (sc), bcc, and fcc, based on a j-j coupling scheme with…
We performed an ultrasonic measurement for the heavy-fermion compound CeRhIn$_5$ to investigate the origin of the field-induced anisotropic phase in high magnetic fields. The transverse elastic constant $C_\mathrm{T} = (C_{11} - C_{12})/2$…
The origin of non-collinear magnetism under quadrupolar ordering is investigated with CeB6 taken as a target system. The mode-mixing effect among 15 multipoles is analyzed based on the Ginzburg-Landau free energy. Then the lower magnetic…
Experimental evidence of the magnetic resonance in the antiferro-quadrupole phase of CeB6 is reported. We have shown that below orbital ordering temperature a new magnetic contribution from localized magnetic moments (LMM) emerge and gives…
d- and f-shells support a large number of local degrees of freedom: dipoles, quadrupoles, octupoles, hexadecapoles, etc. Usually, the ordering of any multipole component leaves the system sufficiently symmetrical to allow a second symmetry…
Lattice effects in a cerium based clathrate compound Ce_3Pd_20Ge_6 with a cubic Cr_23C_6-type structure have been investigated by ultrasonic and thermal expansion measurements. Elastic softenings of (C_11-C_12)/2 and C_44 proportional to…
The nature of multiple electronic orders in skutterudite PrFe_4P_{12} is discussed on the basis of a model with antiferro-quadrupole (AFQ) interaction of \Gamma_3 symmetry. The high-field phase can be reproduced qualitatively provided (i)…
Structural phase transition accompanying with quadrupolar ordering in DyB4 with Shastry-Sutherland type geometrical frustration has been studied by X-ray diffraction. Previous study [D. Okuyama et al.: J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. 74 (2005) 2434.]…
We report experimental observation of a new type of magnetic resonance caused by orbital ordering in a strongly correlated electronic system. Cavity measurements performed on CeB6 single crystals in a frequency range 60-100 GHz show that a…
We investigate a possibility of odd-parity multipole orderings in a locally noncentrosymmetric tetragonal compound CeCoSi. By performing symmetrical and microscopic mean-field analyses on a two-orbital tight-binding model, we propose…
The recent experimental finding of large-amplitude antiferromagnetism induced by uniaxial strain shows that the "hidden" low-field order of URu2Si2 breaks time reversal invariance. We propose a new crystal field model which supports…
We theoretically study electric quadrupole orders in f-electron systems on the fcc lattice. Qudrupole degrees of freedom $O_{20}$ and $O_{22}$ originate in the non-Kramers doublet ground state $\Gamma_3$ of ion with $f^2$ electron…
In contrast to magnetic order formed by electrons' dipolar moments, ordering phenomena associated with higher-order multipoles (quadrupoles, octupoles, etc.) are more difficult to characterize because of the limited choice of experimental…
We study the resonant x-ray scattering (RXS) spectra at the Dy $L_{\rm III}$ absorption edge in the quadrupole ordering phase of DyB$_2$C$_2$. Analyzing the buckling of sheets of B and C atoms, we construct an effective model that the…
