Uranium compounds can manifest a wide range of fascinating many-body phenomena, and are often thought to be poised at a crossover between localized and itinerant regimes for 5f electrons. The antiferromagnetic dipnictide USb2 has been of recent interest due to the discovery of rich proximate phase diagrams and unusual quantum coherence phenomena. Here, linear-dichroic X-ray absorption and elastic neutron scattering are used to characterize electronic symmetries on uranium in USb2 and isostructural UBi2. Of these two materials, only USb2 is found to enable strong Hunds rule alignment of local magnetic degrees of freedom, and to undergo distinctive changes in local atomic multiplet symmetry across the magnetic phase transition. Theoretical analysis reveals that these and other anomalous properties of the material may be understood by attributing it as the first known high temperature realization of a singlet ground state magnet, in which magnetism occurs through a process that resembles exciton condensation.

The recently proposed theoretical concept of a Hunds metal is regarded as a key to explain the exotic magnetic and electronic behavior occuring in the strongly correlated electron systems of multiorbital metallic materials. However, a tuning of the a
bundance of parameters, that determine these systems, is experimentally challenging. Here, we investigate the smallest possible realization of a Hunds metal, a Hunds impurity, realized by a single magnetic impurity strongly hybridized to a metallic substrate. We experimentally control all relevant parameters including magnetic anisotropy and hybridization by hydrogenation with the tip of a scanning tunneling microscope and thereby tune it through a regime from emergent magnetic moments into a multi-orbital Kondo state. Our comparison of the measured temperature and magnetic field dependent spectral functions to advanced many-body theories will give relevant input for their application to non-Fermi liquid transport, complex magnetic order, or unconventional superconductivity.
Excitonic density-wave states realized by the quantum condensation of electron-hole pairs (or excitons) are studied in the two-band Hubbard model with Hunds rule coupling and the pair hopping term. Using the variational cluster approximation, we calc
ulate the grand potential of the system and demonstrate that Hunds rule coupling always stabilizes the excitonic spin-density-wave state and destabilizes the excitonic charge-density-wave state and that the pair hopping term enhances these effects. The characteristics of these excitonic density-wave states are discussed using the calculated single-particle spectral function, density of states, condensation amplitude, and pair coherence length. Implications of our results in the materials aspects are also discussed.
We prove the direct link between low temperature magnetism and high temperature sodium ordering in NaxCoO2 using the example of a heretofore unreported magnetic transition at 8 K which involves a weak ferromagnetic moment. The 8 K feature is characte
rized in detail and its dependence on a diffusive sodium rearrangement around 200 K is demonstrated. Applying muons as local probes this process is shown to result in a reversible phase separation into distinct magnetic phases that can be controlled by specific cooling protocols. Thus the impact of ordered sodium Coulomb potential on the CoO2 physics is evidenced opening new ways to experimentally revisit the NaxCoO2 phase diagram.
Magnetization measurements and time-of-flight neutron powder-diffraction studies on the high-temperature (300--980 K) magnetism and crystal structure (321--1200 K) of a pulverized YCrO$_3$ single crystal have been performed. Temperature-dependent inv
erse magnetic susceptibility coincides with a piecewise linear function with five regimes, with which we fit a Curie-Weiss law and calculate the frustration factor $f$. The fit results indicate a formation of magnetic polarons between 300 and 540 K and a very strong magnetic frustration. By including one factor $eta$ that represents the degree of spin interactions into the Brillouin function, we can fit well the applied-magnetic-field dependence of magnetization. No structural phase transition was observed from 321 to 1200 K. The average thermal expansions of lattice configurations (emph{a}, emph{b}, emph{c}, and emph{V}) obey well the Gr$ddot{textrm{u}}$neisen approximations with an anomaly appearing around 900 K, implying an isosymmetric structural phase transition, and display an anisotropic character along the crystallographic emph{a}, emph{b}, and emph{c} axes with the incompressibility $K^a_0 > K^c_0 > K^b_0$. It is interesting to find that at 321 K, the local distortion size $Delta$(O2) $approx$ 1.96$Delta$(O1) $approx$ 4.32$Delta$(Y) $approx$ 293.89$Delta$(Cr). Based on the refined Y-O and Cr-O bond lengths, we deduce the local distortion environments and modes of Y, Cr, O1, and O2 ions. Especially, the Y and O2 ions display obvious atomic displacement and charge subduction, which may shed light on the dielectric property of the YCrO$_3$ compound. Additionally, by comparing Kramers Mn$^{3+}$ with non-Kramers Cr$^{3+}$ ions, it is noted that being a Kramers or non-Kramers ion can strongly affect the local distortion size, whereas, it may not be able to change the detailed distortion mode.
We consider the orbitally degenerate 3-band Hubbard model with on-site interactions which favor low spin and low orbital angular momentum using standard second order perturbation theory in the large Hubbard-U limit. At even integer filling this model
is a Mott insulator with a non-degenerate ground state that allows for a simple description of particle-hole excitations as well as gapped spin and orbital modes. We find that the Mott gap is generally indirect and that the single particle spectrum at low doping reappears close to even filling but rescaled by a factor 2/3 or 1/3. The model captures the basic phenomenology of the Mott insulating and metallic fullerides AxC60. This includes the existence of a smaller spin gap and larger charge gap at even integer filling, the fact that odd integer stoichiometries are generally metallic while even are insulating, as well as the rapid suppression of the density of states and superconducting transition temperatures with doping away from x=3.
