| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We determined the temperature-pressure phase diagram on CeRh2Si2 around the antiferromagnetic quantum critical pressure, 1 GPa. We observed two successive phase transitions, from the localized-antiferromagnetic phase to the itinerant-antiferromagnetic one , and from the itinerant-antiferromagnetic phase to the paramagnetic one. The A coefficient of the low-temperature resistivity increased at both phase boundaries, indicating the enhancement of the quantum fluctuations. The pressure-induced superconductivity appears in the itinerant-antiferromagnetic phase.
We observed the discontinuous change in the Hall coefficient on the antiferromagnet CeIn3, indicating the phase transition between the localized-antiferromagnetic phase and the itinerant-antiferromagnetic one. Although the quantum fluctuations increased around the localize-itinerant transition, the superconductivity was not observed.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究ではCeRh2Si2とCeIn3において，反強磁性が絶対零度に抑制される磁気的量子臨界点だけではなく，反強磁性相内においてｆ電子の局在・遍歴転移の量子臨界点の存在とその周辺で量子ゆらぎが発達することを明らかにした。今後，他の重い電子系化合物においても同様の量子臨界点の探索と，量子ゆらぎをに起因する新奇電子状態の探索が期待される。
