We argue that key characteristics of the enigmatic transition at T0 = 17.5 K in URu2Si2 indicate that the hidden order is a density wave formed within a band of composite quasiparticles, whose detailed structure is determined by local physics. We expand on our proposal (with Mydosh) of the hidden order as incommensurate orbital antiferromagnetism and present experimental predictions to test our ideas. We then turn towards a microscopic description of orbital antiferromagnetism, exploring…

In order for the hyperfine fields to be observed as a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) linewidth, the order must be incommensurate, with the ordering vector determined so as to account for the ²⁹Si NMR linewsidth data quantitatively.

Evidence is presented that the itinerant excitations, like those in chromium, are due to Fermi surface nesting of hole and electron pockets; hence the hidden order phase probably originates from a Fermani surface instability.

Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations reveal at high fields an abrupt reconstruction of the Fermi surface within the hidden-order (HO) phase of URu2Si2, suggesting an increase in the effective carrier density and suggesting that the field suppression of the HO state is ultimately related to destabilizing a gap in the spectrum of itinerant quasiparticles.

It is found that, as the temperature is lowered, partial screening of the f electrons’ spins gives rise to a spatially modulated Kondo–Fano resonance that is maximal between the surface U atoms, suggesting that the two phenomena involve the same electronic states.

URu2Si2 is full of mystery. Despite having f-electrons, it is unclear whether heavy electrons are present in the ‘hidden order’ phase. Thanks to photoemission studies, itinerant heavy electrons have

It is theoretically proposed that magnetostriction provides a powerful and novel tool to directly detect higher-order multipolar symmetry breaking—such as the elusive octupolar order—by examining scaling behaviour of length change with respect to an applied magnetic field h.
