Columnar Fluctuations as a Source of Non-Fermi-Liquid Behavior in Weak Metallic Magnets

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

It is shown that columnar fluctuations, in conjunction with weak quenched disorder, lead to a T^{3/2} temperature dependence of the electrical resistivity. This is proposed as an explanation of the observed non-Fermi-liquid behavior in the helimagnet MnSi, with one possible realization of the columnar fluctuations provided by skyrmion lines that have independently been proposed to be present in this material.
