| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have developed dilatometric measurements at millikelvin temperatures down to 10 mK in magnetic fields up to 9 T using 3He-4He dilution refrigerator and 9 T superconducting magnet. The dilatometer provides the extremely high resolution of ΔL/L～10＾-10 using a ratio-transformer-based capacitance bridge. The quantum critical phenomena of the typical heavy Fermion compound CeRu2Si2 has been investigated by thermal expansion and magnetostriction measurements at millikelvin temperatures in magnetic fields. The temperature and magnetic field dependence of the critical contribution suggests the existence of an additional quantum critical point.
