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 relaxation 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.

We report a comprehensive $^{139}$La and $^{63}$Cu nuclear magnetic resonance study on La$_{2-x}$Sr$_x$CuO$_4$ ($0.07leq x leq 0.2$) single crystals. The $^{139}$La spin-lattice relaxation rate $^{139}T_1^{-1}$ is drastically influenced by Sr doping $x$ at low temperatures. A detailed field dependence of $^{139}T_1^{-1}$ at $x=1/8$ suggests that charge ordering induces the critical slowing down of spin fluctuations toward glassy spin order and competes with superconductivity. On the other hand, the $^{63}$Cu relaxation rate $^{63}T_1^{-1}$ is well described by a Curie-Weiss law at high temperatures, yielding the Curie-Weiss temperature $Theta$ as a function of doping. $Theta$ changes sharply through a critical hole concentration $x_csim 0.09$. $x_c$ appears to correspond to the delocalization limit of doped holes, above which the bulk nature of superconductivity is established.
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. M agnetic 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.
We performed $^{59}$Co nuclear magnetic and quadrupole resonance (NMR and NQR) measurements under pressure on a single-crystalline CeCoSi, which undergoes an unresolved phase transition at $T_0$. The NQR spectra clearly showed that the phase transiti on at $T_0$ is nonmagnetic, but any symmetry lowering at the Co site was not seen irrespective of the feature of second-order phase transition. By contrast, the NMR spectra were split by the induced magnetic field perpendicular to the external magnetic field. These results show that the phase below $T_0$ is not a simple paramagnetic state but is most likely electric multipolar ordered state of Ce $4f$ electrons. The development of the Kondo effect by applying pressure is thought to be crucial to stabilize this state and to show novel features beyond commonality of tetragonal Ce-based systems.

We report a $^{23}$Na and $^{75}$As nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) investigation of Na$_{x}$FeAs series ($x=1$, 0.9, 0.8) exhibiting a spin-density wave (SDW) order below $T_{rm SDW}=45$, 50 and 43 K for $x=1$, 0.9, 0.8, respectively, and a bulk su perconductivity below $T_capprox 12$ K for x=0.9. Below $T_{rm SDW}$, a spin-lattice relaxation reveals the presence of gapless particle-hole excitations in the whole $x$ range, meaning that a portion of the Fermi surface remains gapless. The superconducting fraction as deduced from the bulk susceptibility scales with this portion, while the SDW order parameter as deduced from the NMR linewidth scales inversely with it. The NMR lineshape can only be reproduced assuming an incommensurate (IC) SDW. These findings qualitatively correspond to the mean-field models of competing interband magnetism and intraband superconductivity, which lead to an IC SDW order coexisting with superconductivity in part of the phase diagram.
In order to investigate physical properties around a ferromagnetic (FM) quantum transition point and a tricritical point (TCP) in the itinerant-electron metamagnetic compound UCoAl, we have performed the $^{59}$Co nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) m easurement for the Fe-substituted U(Co$_{1-x}$Fe$_x$)Al ($x$ = 0, 0.5, 1, and 2%) in zero external magnetic field. The Fe concentration dependence of $^{59}$Co-NQR spectra at low temperatures indicates that the first-order FM transition occurs at least above $x$ = 1%. The magnetic fluctuations along the $c$ axis detected by the nuclear spin-spin relaxation rate $1/T_2$ exhibit an anomaly at $T_mathrm{max}$ $sim$ 20 K and enhance with increasing $x$. These results are in good agreement with theoretical predictions and indicate the presence of prominent critical fluctuations at the TCP in this system.
