We have performed ^{59}Co-nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) studies on YCoGe, which is a reference compound of ferromagnetic superconductor UCoGe, in order to investigate the magnetic properties at the Co site. Magnetic and superconducting transitions were not observed down to 0.3 K, but a conventional metallic behavior was found in YCoGe, although its crystal structure is similar to that of UCoGe. From the comparison between experimental results of two compounds, the ferromagnetism and superconductivity observed in UCoGe originate from the U-5f electrons.

Nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) measurements were performed on the heavy fermion superconductor Ce3PtIn11 with Tc = 0.32 K. The temperature dependence of both spin-lattice relaxation rate 1/T1 and NQR spectra evidences the occurrence of two succes sive magnetic transitions with TN1 = 2.2 K and TN2 = 2.0 K. In successive magnetic transitions, even though the magnetic moment at the Ce(2) site plays a major role, the magnetic moment at the Ce(1) site also contributes to some extent. While a commensurate antiferromagnetic ordered state appears for TN2 < T < TN1, a partially incommensurate antiferromagnetic ordered state is suggested for T < TN2.
PuCoGa$_5$ has emerged as a prototypical heavy-fermion superconductor, with its transition temperature ($T_csimeq18.5$ K) being the highest amongst such materials. Nonetheless, a clear description as to what drives the superconducting pairing is stil l lacking, rendered complicated by the notoriously intricate nature of plutoniums 5$f$ valence electrons. Here, we present a detailed $^{69,71}$Ga nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) study of PuCoGa$_5$, concentrating on the systems normal state properties near to $T_c$ and aiming to detect distinct signatures of possible pairing mechanisms. In particular, the quadrupole frequency and spin-lattice relaxation rate were measured for the two crystallographically inequivalent Ga sites and for both Ga isotopes, in the temperature range 1.6 K - 300 K. No evidence of significant charge fluctuations is found from the NQR observables. On the contrary, the low-energy dynamics is dominated by anisotropic spin fluctuations with strong, nearly critical, in-plane character, which are effectively identical to the case of the sister compound PuCoIn$_5$. These findings are discussed within the context of different theoretical proposals for the unconventional pairing mechanism in heavy-fermion superconductors.
We report $^{115}$In nuclear quadrupolar resonance (NQR) measurements on the heavy-fermion superconductor PuCoIn$_5$, in the temperature range $0.29{rm K}leq Tleq 75{rm K}$. The NQR parameters for the two crystallographically inequivalent In sites ar e determined, and their temperature dependence is investigated. A linear shift of the quadrupolar frequency with lowering temperature below the critical value $T_c$ is revealed, in agreement with the prediction for composite pairing. The nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate $T_1^{-1}(T)$ clearly signals a superconducting (SC) phase transition at $T_csimeq 2.3$K, with strong spin fluctuations, mostly in-plane, dominating the relaxation process in the normal state near to $T_c$. Analysis of the $T_1^{-1}$ data in the SC state suggests that PuCoIn$_5$ is a strong-coupling $d$-wave superconductor.

Nuclear magnetic resonance gyroscopes that detect rotation as a shift in the precession frequency of nuclear spins, have attracted a lot of attentions. Under a feedback-generated drive, the precession frequency is supposed to be dependent only on the angular momentum and an applied magnetic field. However, nuclei with spins larger than 1/2, experience electric quadrupole interaction with electric field gradients at the cell walls. This quadrupole interaction shifts the precession frequencies of the nuclear spins, which brings inaccuracy to the rotation measurement as the quadrupole interaction constant $C_q$ is difficult to precisely measure. In this work, the effects of quadrupole interaction on nuclear magnetic resonance gyroscopes is theoretically studied. We find that, when the constant $C_q$ is small compared to the characteristic decay rate of the system, as the strength of the feedback-driving field increases, the quadrupole shift monotonically decreases, regardless of the sign of $C_q$. In large $C_q$ regime, more than one precession frequency exists, and the nuclear spins may precess with a single frequency or multi-frequencies depending on initial conditions. In this regime, with large driving amplitudes, the nuclear spin can restore the single-frequency-precession. These results are obtained by solving an effective master equation of the nuclear spins in a rotating frame, from which both the steady-state solutions and dynamics of the system are shown.
The low-temperature magnetic properties of LaCoGe with the tetragonal CeFeSi-type structure were investigated by ^{59}Co- and ^{139}La-nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) measurements. The nuclear spin-lattice rela xation rate divided by the temperature, 1/(T_1 T), gradually increases with decreasing temperature and shows a kink at approximately 18 K, below which an inhomogeneous internal field appears at the Co nuclear site. These results indicate that antiferromagnetic ordering occurs below T_N ~ 18 K. However, an internal field was not observed at the La nuclear site below T_N. Taking all NMR results into account, we conclude that spin-density-wave (SDW)-type ordering occurs, where magnetic correlations are of the checkerboard type in the ab-plane and have a long periodicity along the c-axis with inhomogeneous ordered moments pointing to the c-axis.
