Temperature-dependent Fermi surface evolution in heavy fermion CeIrIn5

We address theoretically the evolution of the heavy fermion Fermi surface (FS) as a function of temperature (T), using a first principles dynamical mean-field theory approach combined with density functional theory. We focus on the archetypical heavy electrons in CeIrIn{5}. Upon cooling, both the quantum oscillation frequencies and cyclotron masses show logarithmic scaling behavior ～ln(T{0}/T)] with different characteristic temperatures T{0}=130 and 50 K, respectively. The enlargement of the electron FSs at low T is accompanied by topological changes around T=10-50 K. The resistivity coherence peak observed at T?50 K is the result of the competition between the binding of incoherent 4f electrons to the spd conduction electrons at Fermi level (E{F}) and the formation of coherent 4f electrons.
