Evidence for weak itinerant long-range magnetic correlations in UGe2.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Positive muon spin relaxation measurements performed on the ferromagnet UGe2 reveal, in addition to the well-known localized 5f-electron density responsible for the bulk magnetic properties, the existence of itinerant quasistatic magnetic correlations. Their critical dynamics is well described by the conventional dipolar Heisenberg model. These correlations involve small magnetic moments.

Superconductivity and Quantum Phase Transitions in Weak Itinerant Ferromagnets
It is argued that the phase transition in low-Tc clean itinerant ferromagnets is generically of first order, due to correlation effects that lead to a nonanalytic term in the free energy. A tricritical point separates the line of first order transitions from Heisenberg critical behavior at higher temperatures. Sufficiently strong quenched disorder suppresses the first order transition via the a...
متن کاملNon-Landau damping of magnetic excitations in systems with localized and itinerant electrons.
We discuss the form of the damping of magnetic excitations in a metal near a ferromagnetic instability. The paramagnon theory predicts that the damping term should have the form γ(q,Ω)∝Ω/Γ(q), with Γ(q)∝q (the Landau damping). However, the experiments on uranium metallic compounds UGe2 and UCoGe showed that Γ(q) is essentially independent of q. A nonzero γ(q=0,Ω) is impossible in systems with o...
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 کاملAn itinerant antiferromagnetic metal without magnetic constituents
The origin of magnetism in metals has been traditionally discussed in two diametrically opposite limits: itinerant and local moments. Surprisingly, there are very few known examples of materials that are close to the itinerant limit, and their properties are not universally understood. In the case of the two such examples discovered several decades ago, the itinerant ferromagnets ZrZn2 and Sc3I...
متن کاملScattering mechanism of nonmagnetic phase on nano diluted magnetic semiconductors (DMS)
This paper shows the scattering mechanism at diluted magneticsemiconductors. The doped magnetic atom produces a scattering potential due to becoupled of itinerant carrier spin of host material with magnetic momentum of the dopedmagnetic atom. Formulas of scattering event were rewritten by the plane waveexpansion and then the electron mobility of DMS was calculated. Calculations showKondo effect...
