Reentrant superconductivity driven by quantum tricritical fluctuations in URhGe; Evidence from $$^{59}$$Co NMR in URh$$_{0.9}$$Co$$_{0.1}$$Ge

Tokunaga, Yo  ; Aoki, Dai*; Mayaffre, H.*; Kr$"a$mer, S.*; Julien, M.-H.*; Berthier, C.*; Horvati$'c$, M.*; Sakai, Hironori   ; Kambe, Shinsaku  ; Araki, Shingo*

Our measurements of the $$^{59}$$Co NMR spin-spin relaxation in URh$$_{0.9}$$Co$$_{0.1}$$Ge reveal a divergence of electronic spin fluctuations in the vicinity of the field-induced quantum critical point at $$H_Rapprox13$$ T, around which reentrant superconductivity (RSC) occurs in the ferromagnetic heavy fermion compound URhGe. We show that critical fluctuations develop in the same limited region near the field $$H_R$$ as that where RSC is observed. This strongly suggests these quantum fluctuations as the pairing glue responsible for the RSC. The fluctuations observed are characteristic of a tricritical point.
