Abstract
When a fragile ordered state is suppressed to zero temperature, a quantum phase transition occurs, which is often marked by the appearance of unconventional superconductivity. While the quantum critical point can be hidden, the influence of the quantum criticality extends to fairly high temperatures, manifesting non-Fermi liquid behavior in a wide range of the field-temperature-pressure phase space. Here, we report the tuning of a magnetic energy scale in the heavy-fermion superconductor UTe2, previously identified with a peak in the c-axis electrical transport temperature dependence, using applied hydrostatic pressures and a-axis-oriented magnetic fields as complementary (and opposing) tuning parameters: the characteristic peak in c-axis resistivity decreases in temperature with applied pressure before vanishing near the critical pressure of 15 kbar (1.5 GPa), while the application of field shifts the peak to a higher temperature and broadens it under all studied pressures. At the critical pressure, the transport behavior deviates from Fermi liquid behavior, exhibiting a nearly linear temperature dependence of resistivity with an enhanced pre-factor. Our results shed light on the microscopic origin of the c-axis resistivity peak and provide a clear picture of magnetic energy scale evolution relevant to quantum criticality in UTe2. The heavy-fermion superconductor UTe2 has attracted recent interest for its novel superconducting phases, tunable by pressure and magnetic field. Here, a systematic study of anisotropic resistivity indicates an influence of quantum criticality that may be important to unconventional superconductivity in this compound.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
