Recent theory identify the thermal and electrical transport properties as a sensitive probe of the validity of the Fermi liquid description of the metallic state [1]. A prime example for a well understood, weakly spin-polarized Fermi liquid ground state has long been established in the weak itinerant helimagnet MnSi. We report a detailed study of the evolution of the thermal and electrical transport properties across the quantum phase transitions in Mn1−xFexSi [2] down to temperatures of ∼2 K under magnetic fields up to 14 T. These data are complemented by additional selected measurements in Mn1−xCoxSi. As our main objective we consider the validity of the Wiedemann-Franz law across the quantum phase transitions in Mn1−xFexSi.
