Abstract
We report resonant elastic x-ray scattering of long-range magnetic order in EuPtSi_{3}, combining different scattering geometries with full linear polarization analysis to unambiguously identify magnetic scattering contributions. At low temperatures, EuPtSi_{3} stabilizes type A antiferromagnetism featuring various long-wavelength modulations. For magnetic fields applied in the hard magnetic basal plane, well-defined regimes of cycloidal, conical, and fanlike superstructures may be distinguished that encompass a pocket of commensurate type A order without superstructure. For magnetic field applied along the easy axis, the phase diagram comprises the cycloidal and conical superstructures only. Highlighting the power of polarized resonant elastic x-ray scattering, our results reveal a combination of magnetic phases that suggest a highly unusual competition between antiferromagnetic exchange interactions with Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya spin-orbit coupling of similar strength.

Abstract
Exploration of the gold-rich part of the ternary Gd–Au–Al system afforded the intermetallic compound GdAu6.75−xAl0.5+x (x ≈ 0.54) which was structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction (Pnma, a = 18.7847(4) Å, b = 23.8208(5) Å, c = 5.3010(1) Å). GdAu6.75−xAl0.5+x crystallizes in a previously unknown structure type featuring layers of Gd2(Au, Al)29 and Gd2(Au, Al)28 clusters which are arranged as in a close-packing parallel to the ac plane. The Gd substructure corresponds to slightly corrugated 36 nets (dGd–Gd = 5.30–5.41 Å) which are stacked on top of each other along the b direction with alternating short (5.4, 5.6 Å, within layers) and long distances (6.4 Å, between layers). The title compound has been discussed with respect to a quasicrystal approximant (1/1 AC) GdAu5.3Al in the same system. The magnetic properties of GdAu6.75−xAl0.5+x were found to be reminiscent to those of some ternary ACs, with sharp peaks in the temperature dependent magnetization, and metamagnetic-like transitions. The material becomes antiferromagnetic below 25 K; magnetometry results suggest that the antiferromagnetic state is composed of ferromagnetic ac planes, coupled antiferromagnetically along the b direction.

Abstract
![]()
The new intermetallic
compound Eu2Pd2Sn has
been investigated. A single crystal was selected from the alloy and
was analyzed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, revealing that this
compound possesses the noncentrosymmetric Ca2Pd2Ge structure type being, so far, the only rare-earth-based representative.
Bonding analysis, performed on the basis of DOS and (I)COHP, reveals
the presence of strong covalent Sn–Pd bonds in addition to
linear and equidistant Pd–Pd chains. The incomplete ionization
of Eu leads to its participation in weaker covalent interactions.
The magnetic effective moment, extracted from the magnetic susceptibility χ(T) is μeff = 7.87
μB, close to the free ion Eu2+ value (μeff = 7.94 μB). The maximum
of χ(T) at TN ∼
13 K indicates an antiferromagnetic behavior below this temperature.
A coincident sharp anomaly in the specific heat CP(T) emerges from a broad anomaly centered
at around 10 K. From the reduced jump in the heat capacity at TN a scenario of a transition to an incommensurate
antiferromagnetic phase below TN followed
by a commensurate configuration below 10 K is suggested. A new intermetallic compound, Eu2Pd2Sn, is so far the only rare-earth representative of the Ca2Pd2Ge structure type. Synthesis and characterization of
the structure, together with magnetic properties, are discussed.

Abstract
We present a detailed study of the temperature evolution of the crystal structure, specific heat, magnetic susceptibility and resistivity of single crystals of the paradigmatic valence-fluctuating compound [Formula: see text]. A comparison to stable-valent isostructural compounds [Formula: see text] (with Eu3+), and [Formula: see text], (with Eu2+) reveals an anomalously large thermal expansion indicative of the lattice softening associated to valence fluctuations. A marked broad peak at temperatures around 65-75 K is observed in specific heat, susceptibility and the derivative of resistivity, as thermal energy becomes large enough to excite Eu into a divalent state, which localizes one f electron and increases scattering of conduction electrons. In addition, the intermediate valence at low temperatures manifests in a moderately renormalized electron mass, with enhanced values of the Sommerfeld coefficient in the specific heat and a Fermi-liquid-like dependence of resistivity at low temperatures. The high residual magnetic susceptibility is mainly ascribed to a Van Vleck contribution. Although the intermediate/fluctuating valence duality is to some extent represented in the interconfiguration fluctuation model commonly used to analyze data on valence-fluctuating systems, we show that this model cannot describe the different physical properties of [Formula: see text] with a single set of parameters.

Evolution from Ferromagnetism to Antiferromagnetism in Yb(Rh_{1-x}Co_{x})_{2}Si_{2}. PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 2019; 122:077202.

Abstract
Yb(Rh_{1-x}Co_{x})_{2}Si_{2} is a model system to address two challenging problems in the field of strongly correlated electron systems. The first is the intriguing competition between ferromagnetic (FM) and antiferromagnetic (AFM) order when approaching a magnetic quantum critical point (QCP). The second is the occurrence of magnetic order along a very hard crystalline electric field (CEF) direction, i.e., along the one with the smallest available magnetic moment. Here, we present a detailed study of the evolution of the magnetic order in this system from a FM state with moments along the very hard c direction at x=0.27 towards the yet unknown magnetic state at x=0. We first observe a transition towards an AFM canted state with decreasing x and then to a pure AFM state. This confirms that the QCP in YbRh_{2}Si_{2} is AFM, but the phase diagram is very similar to those observed in some inherently FM systems like NbFe_{2} and CeRuPO, which suggests that the basic underlying instability might be FM. Despite the huge CEF anisotropy the ordered moment retains a component along the c axis also in the AFM state. The huge CEF anisotropy in Yb(Rh_{1-x}Co_{x})_{2}Si_{2} excludes that this hard-axis ordering originates from a competing exchange anisotropy as often proposed for other heavy-fermion systems. Instead, it points to an order-by-disorder based mechanism.

Abstract
Application of the Luttinger theorem to the Kondo lattice YbRh2Si2 suggests that its large 4f-derived Fermi surface (FS) in the paramagnetic (PM) regime should be similar in shape and volume to that of the divalent local-moment antiferromagnet (AFM) EuRh2Si2 in its PM regime. Here we show by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy that paramagnetic EuRh2Si2 has a large FS essentially similar to the one seen in YbRh2Si2 down to 1 K. In EuRh2Si2 the onset of AFM order below 24.5 K induces an extensive fragmentation of the FS due to Brillouin zone folding, intersection and resulting hybridization of the Fermi-surface sheets. Our results on EuRh2Si2 indicate that the formation of the AFM state in YbRh2Si2 is very likely also connected with similar changes in the FS, which have to be taken into account in the controversial analysis and discussion of anomalies observed at the quantum critical point in this system.

Abstract
Finding ways to create and control the spin-dependent properties of two-dimensional electron states (2DESs) is a major challenge for the elaboration of novel spin-based devices. Spin-orbit and exchange-magnetic interactions (SOI and EMI) are two fundamental mechanisms that enable access to the tunability of spin-dependent properties of carriers. The silicon surface of HoRh2Si2 appears to be a unique model system, where concurrent SOI and EMI can be visualized and controlled by varying the temperature. The beauty and simplicity of this system lie in the 4f moments, which act as a multiple tuning instrument on the 2DESs, as the 4f projections parallel and perpendicular to the surface order at essentially different temperatures. Here we show that the SOI locks the spins of the 2DESs exclusively in the surface plane when the 4f moments are disordered: the Rashba-Bychkov effect. When the temperature is gradually lowered and the system experiences magnetic order, the rising EMI progressively competes with the SOI leading to a fundamental change in the spin-dependent properties of the 2DESs. The spins rotate and reorient toward the out-of-plane Ho 4f moments. Our findings show that the direction of the spins and the spin-splitting of the two-dimensional electrons at the surface can be manipulated in a controlled way by using only one parameter: the temperature.

Abstract
A new high-field magnet endstation for X-ray magnetic dichroism experiments has been installed and commissioned at the ESRF soft X-ray beamline ID32. The magnet consists of two split-pairs of superconducting coils which can generate up to 9 T along the beam and up to 4 T orthogonal to the beam. It is connected to a cluster of ultra-high-vacuum chambers that offer a comprehensive set of surface preparation and characterization techniques. The endstation and the beam properties have been designed to provide optimum experimental conditions for X-ray magnetic linear and circular dichroism experiments in the soft X-ray range between 400 and 1600 eV photon energy. User operation started in November 2014.
