Magnetic excitations in quantum-critical Ce(Pd0.86Ni0.14)Al — •O. Stockert1, K. Schmalzl2, V. Fritsch3, and H. v.

The heavy-fermion compound CePdAl offers the opportunity to study quantum criticality in the presence of geometrical frustration. The antiferromagnetic order in CePdAl decreases strongly when substituting nickel for palladium and a quantum critical point is approached in CePd1−xNixAl for x = 0.14. We performed extensive inelastic neutron scattering to study the low-energy magnetic excitations in Ce(Pd0.86Ni0.14)Al, i.e., the alloy where magnetic order is just suppressed. We find spin fluctuations being broad in q-space indicating only short-range dynamic spin correlations. We discuss their q-space and temperature dependence and will compare the results to the spin excitations in the magnetically ordered parent compound CePdAl.
