Manley et al. (Science Advances, 16 September 2016, p.e1501814) report a splitting of a transverse acoustic phonon branch below T c in the relaxor ferroelectric Pb[(Mg 1/3Nb 2/3) 1-xTi x]O 3 with x=0.30 using neutron scattering methods. They argue that

Low-Carrier Density and Fragile Magnetism in a Kondo Lattice System

Binod K. Rai, Iain W. H. Oswald, Wenjing Ban, C.-L. Huang, V. Loganathan, A. M. Hallas, M. N. Wilson, G. M. Luke, Leland Harriger, Qingzhen Huang, Y. Li, Sami Dzsaber, Julia Y. Chan, N. L. Wang, Silke Paschen, Jeffrey W. Lynn, Andriy H. Nevidomskyy, Pengcheng Dai, Q. Si, E. Morosan
Known low carrier Kondo systems evolve from metallic non-magnetic analogues, while a recent theoretical model for the dilute carrier Kondo limit predicts semimetallic behavior. Very few 4f low carrier Kondo systems have been reported, mostly based on Ce

Although the precise mechanism is under, unconventional superconductivity (SC) is linked to the pairing of electrons by itinerant antiferromagnetic (AFM) spin fluctuations. Thus, unconventional SC often develops in magnetic metals on the cusp of static AFM

Manley et al. (Ref. [1]) report the observation of an unexpected, weak, phonon mode located in energy between that of the transverse acoustic (TA) and soft transverse optic (TO) modes in the relaxor ferroelectric Pb[(Mg0.33Nb0.67)1-xTix]O3 (PMN-xPT) with

Local Breaking of Fourfold Rotational Symmetry by Short-Range Magnetic Order in Heavily Overdoped Ba(Fe 1-x Cu x ) 2 As 2

We investigate Cu-doped Ba(Fe 1-xCu x) 2As 2 with transport, magnetic susceptibility, and elastic neutron scattering measurements. In the heavily Cu-doped regime where long-range stripe-type antiferromagnetic order in BaFe 2As 2 is suppressed, Ba(Fe 1-xCu

Reentrant Phase Diagram of Yb 2 Ti 2 O 7 in a [111] Magnetic Field

We present a phase diagram of rare-earth pyrochlore Yb 2Ti 2O 7 in a (111) magnetic field. Using heat capacity, magnetization, and neutron scattering data, we show an unusual field-dependence of a first-order phase boundary, wherein a small applied field

Magnons, the spin-wave quanta, are disturbances that embody a wave propagating through a back-ground medium formed by ordered magnetic moments. In an isotropic Heisenberg system, these disturbances vary in a continuous manner around an ordered spin
