Two Magnetic Gruumlneisen Parameters In The Ferromagnetic Superconductor Uge2

We report ambient-pressure magnetization, heat capacity, and thermal-expansion measurements of the ferromagnetic superconductor UGe2 in high magnetic fields. An analysis of the magnetic heat capacity derived from both magnetization and specific-heat data shows that UGe2 is well described in the framework of the molecular-field theory. Our heat-capacity and thermal-expansion results reveal a clear crossover regime, a feature that illustrates the proximity to the quantum critical end point of a first-order boundary between two different ferromagnetic phases. Furthermore, we show that the ferromagnetic contribution to these thermodynamic quantities can be split into two terms with distinct Gruumlneisen parameters.
