Elastic anomalies under magnetic fields in the heavy-fermion ferromagnet YbPtGe

The Yb-based compound YbPtGe with the orthorhombic ε-TiNiSi-type structure was reported as a heavy-fermion ferromagnet with the phase transition temperature, TC = 5.4 K. To investigate the magnetically ordered states in YbPtGe, we measured the elastic moduli under a magnetic field along the b-axis i...
