However, driven by a theoretical effort it has been suggested that many properties can be understood within the framework of a “quantum phase transition” (QPT): a second-order phase transition from a magnetically Handbook on the Physics and Chemistry of Rare Earths, Vol. 49. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/bs.hpcre.2016.03.002 © 2016 Elsevier B.V.
