Enhancement and Discontinuity of Effective Mass through the First-Order Metamagnetic Transition in UTe2
Open accessAbstract
Metamagnetic transitions in the novel spin-triplet superconductor UTe$_2$ were investigated through the newly developed simultaneous measurements of magnetization and sample temperature for the field along the orthorhombic $b$-axis and close to the [011] direction, where reentrant superconductivity (RSC) is detected below and above the first-order metamagnetic transition field $H_{\rm m}$. Combining the Maxwell's relation and the Clausius-Clapeyron equation, we obtained the field dependence of Sommerfeld coefficient $γ$ through the first-order metamagnetic transition. A significant enhancement of the effective mass toward $H_{\rm m}$ were detected for both field directions. On the other hand, above $H_{\rm m}$, the effective mass discontinuously decreases for $H~||~b$, while it discontinuously increases for $H~||~\sim [011]$, which seems to make a crucial role for the RSC.

The Hm value in Orphan UTe2 is slightly lower than previous observations of Hm from low-field-superconducting samples of UTe2 and lower than the metamagnetic transitions recorded for both Low-R and High-R UTe2.
“This value is slightly lower than previous observations of Hm reported from low-field-superconducting samples of UTe23,5,18,35–37, and lower than the metamagnetic transitions recorded for both Low-R and High-R UTe2 (Fig. 2b).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
