摘要: The scaling behavior over four decades of the ratio temperature T to magnetic field B observed in magnetization beta-YbAlB4 is theoretically examined. By developing a theoretical framework that exhibits quantum critical phenomena Yb-valence fluctuations under field, we show T/B-scaling can appear near point valence transition. emergence T/B indicates presence small characteristic energy scale fluctuations. It argued criticality offers unified explanation for unconventional as well beta-YbAlB4.
