Degenerate Fermi and non-Fermi liquids near a quantum critical phase transition

In new observations reported here, we find that coexisting, static Fermi liquid and non-Fermi liquid states are a key feature of the QCPT in YbRh$$_{2}$$Si$$_{2}$$. By means of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spin-lattice relaxation time measurements on a single crystal sample, it is revealed that the FL and NFL states are invariant,while their relative proportion in a crossover is field dependent near the QCPT. Such a pair of states has remained hidden in Ce compounds, owing presumably to short lifetimes for the two states. A new scaling law for the occupation ratio of the two states is derived, and could be widely applicable to Kondo-lattice systems
