Transferred hyperfine fields in the heavy fermion compounds CeCu_6−xAu_x — •Max Winkelmann, Gerda Fischer, and Elmar Dormann — Physikalisches Institut, Universitaet Karlsruhe, D-76128 Karlsruhe

CeCu₆ is one of the best known heavy-fermion paramagnets, CeCu₅Au₁ is a heavy-fermion antiferromagnet with T_N = 2.3 K, and for x ≈ 0.1 signatures of non-Fermi-liquid behaviour were reported. We present temperature dependent studies of ⁶³Cu- and ⁶⁵Cu-NMR line shifts for CeCu_6−xAu_x (x=0;0.1;1) single-crystal powder samples. These are different to the earlier[1] presented line shifts for polycrystalline powder samples. Via the correlation with the temperature dependence of the static magnetic susceptibility, Cu-site dependent Knight shift and transferred hyperfine field coupling constants are derived. Local polarization varies in sign and is larger by a factor of 10 than indicated by the earlier published[2] high-temperature average value.
