Specific heat for single crystalline samples of Ce1-xLaxOs4Sb12 at zero-field and magnetic fields to 14 T is reported. Our results confirm enhanced value of the electronic specific heat coefficient in the paramagnetic state. They provide arguments for the intrinsic origin of the 1.1 K anomaly. This transition leads to opening of the gap at the Fermi surface. This low temperature state of CeOs4Sb12 is extremely sensitive to chemical impurities. 2% of La substituted for Ce suppresses the transition and reduces the electronic specific heat coefficient. The magnetic field response of the specific heat is also anomalous.

Magnetic properties under the external field are investigated in low-carrier two-band systems, which may explain the nontrivial phase boundary found in temperature vs. magnetic field diagram discovered in some materials, such as filled-skutterudite c
ompound CeOs$_{4}$Sb$_{12}$. Analysis is made both for the periodic Anderson model with the small-dispersive $f$ band and the simplified two parabolic band model in the vicinity of the Fermi level. The magnetic susceptibilities are calculated by using the random phase approximation. It is shown that the maximum value of the magnetic susceptibility perpendicular to the external field is enhanced and yields the anomalous phase boundary. By applying the magnetic field, the phase boundary shifts to higher temperature region in the insulating state with a small band gap. On the other hand, the similar phase boundary also appears in the semi-metallic states, in which the structure of the density of states in the vicinity of the Fermi level and the finite temperature effect are essential.
We present detailed, low temperature, magnetoresistance and specific heat data of single crystal YbNiSi3 measured in magnetic field applied along the easy magnetic axis, H || b. An initially antiferromagnetic ground state changes into a field-induced
metamagnetic phase at ~16 kOe (T -> 0). On further increase of magnetic field, magnetic order is suppressed at ~85 kOe. The functional behaviors of the resistivity and specific heat are discussed in comparison with those of the few other stoichiometric, heavy fermion compounds with established field-induced quantum critical point.
Calcium ruthenate ($CaRuO_3$) is widely believed to be located close to a quantum critical point due to the strong non-Fermi-liquid behavior expressed in the temperature dependence of electronic transport, specific heat, optical conductivity, etc. Ho
wever, the corresponding anomalous behavior, marking crossover temperature regimes in the magnetic response of $CaRuO_3$, is still lacking. Here we report detailed AC and DC magnetic susceptibility measurements of $CaRuO_3$ and $CaRu_{0.97}Ti_{0.03}O_3$. The AC magnetic susceptibility measurements of the $CaRuO_3$ show a slight dependence on the frequency of AC magnetic field below ~ 40 K, and an additional subtle change of curvature around 12 K. We interpret these results as a critical slowing down of spin fluctuations towards T=0 K. We confirm these observations by magnetic measurements of $CaRu_{0.97}Ti_{0.03}O_3$, which show a pronounced magnetic response corresponding to the above temperatures.
We present magnetic susceptibility, heat capacity, and neutron diffraction measurements of polycrystalline Nd2Ru2O7 down to 0.4 K. Three anomalies in the magnetic susceptibility measurements at 146, 21 and 1.8 K are associated with an antiferromagnet
ic ordering of the Ru4+ moments, a weak ferromagnetic signal attributed to a canting of the Ru4+ and Nd3+ moments, and a long-range-ordering of the Nd3+ moments, respectively. The long-range order of the Nd3+ moments was observed in all the measurements, indicating that the ground state of the compound is not a spin glass. The magnetic entropy of Rln2 accumulated up to 5 K, suggests the Nd3+ has a doublet ground state. Lattice distortions accompany the transitions, as revealed by neutron diffraction measurements, and in agreement with earlier synchrotron x-ray studies. The magnetic moment of the Nd3+ ion at 0.4 K is estimated to be 1.54(2){mu}B and the magnetic structure is all-in all-out as determined by our neutron diffraction measurements.
Shubnikov--de Haas (SdH) and Hall-effect measurements of CeBiPt and LaBiPt reveal the presence of simple and very small Fermi surfaces with hole-like charge carriers for both semimetals. In the magnetic material, CeBiPt, we observe a strong temperatu
re dependence of the SdH frequency. This highly unusual effect might be connected with an internal exchange field within the material and a strongly spin-dependent scattering of the charge carriers.
