Magnetic phase transition in the itinerant helimagnet MnSi: Thermodynamic and transport properties
A careful study of thermodynamic and transport properties of a high-quality single crystal of MnSi at ambient pressure suggests that its transition to a helical magnetic state near 29 K is weakly first order. The heat capacity, temperature derivative of resistivity, thermal expansion, and magnetic susceptibility exhibit a specific structure around the phase transition point, interpreted as a co...
متن کاملUltrasonic studies of the magnetic phase transition in MnSi.
Measurements of the sound velocities in a single crystal of MnSi were performed in the temperature range 4-150 K. Elastic constants, controlling propagation of longitudinal waves, reveal significant softening at a temperature of about 29.6 K and small discontinuities at ∼28.8 K, which corresponds to the magnetic phase transition in MnSi. In contrast, the shear elastic moduli do not show any sof...
متن کاملNon-Fermi Liquid Behavior in a Weak Itinerant Ferromagnet MnSi
MnSi is a weak itinerant helimagnet with a relatively low order magnetic moment. Temperature dependance of resistivity shows that it enters non-Fermi liquid state above a critical pressure pc which remains to be understood. The observed partial magnetic order above pc indicates novel metallic state. Here, Fermi liquid and non-Fermi liquid theories are discussed with the main focus on the temper...
متن کاملLost heat capacity and entropy in the helical magnet MnSi.
The heat capacity of MnSi at B = 0 and B = 4 T was measured in the temperature range 2.5-100 K. To analyze the data, calculations of the phonon spectrum and phonon density of states in MnSi were performed. The calculated phonon frequencies were confirmed by means of inelastic neutron scattering. The analysis of the data suggests the existence of negative contributions to the heat capacity and e...
متن کاملCritical phenomena of emergent magnetic monopoles in a chiral magnet
Second-order continuous phase transitions are characterized by symmetry breaking with order parameters. Topological orders of electrons, characterized by the topological index defined in momentum space, provide a distinct perspective for phase transitions, which are categorized as quantum phase transitions not being accompanied by symmetry breaking. However, there are still limited observations...
