Abstract

Abstract: We present detailed results of the field evolution of the de Haas–van Alphen (dHvA) effect in . A magnetic field-induced reconstruction of the Fermi surface is clearly shown to occur inside the antiferromagnetic state, in an applied field of around T, which is evidenced by the appearance of several new dHvA branches. The angular dependence of the dHvA frequencies reveals that the Fermi surfaces of at and are similar. The results suggest that the Ce-4 f electrons in become itinerant at due to the Kondo effect, prior to the field-induced quantum critical point (QCP) at T. The electronic states at the field-induced QCP are therefore different from that of the pressure-induced QCP where a dramatic Fermi surface reconstruction occurs exactly at the critical pressure, indicating that multiple types of QCP may exist in .
