Quadrupolar interactions in heavy fermion metal YbRh2Si2

Abstract

We describe the experimentally revealed by Sichelschmidt et al, Phys. Rev. Lett. 91 (2003) 156401, g tensor, gperpendicular=3.561 and gparallel=0.17, at 5 K by means of crystal field interactions of the 4f13 configuration of the Yb3+ ion of YbRh2Si2 in a slightly orthorhombically distorted tetragonal crystal field. We have shown that the temperature dependence of the quadrupolar interactions Q(T) of the Yb nucleous will help to distinguish between Gamma7 and Gamma6 ground state. For the Gamma7 ground state Q(T) is expected to exhibits an anomalous dependence. Keywords: heavy fermion, crystal field, quadrupolar moment,YbRh2Si2
