abstract = {In mixed-valence or heavy-fermion systems, the
hybridization between local f orbitals and conduction band
states can cause the suppression of long-range magnetic
order, which competes with strong spin fluctuations. Ce- and
Yb-based systems have been found to exhibit fascinating
physical properties (heavy-fermion superconductivity,
non-Fermi-liquid states, etc.) when tuned to the vicinity of
magnetic quantum critical points by use of various external
control parameters (temperature, magnetic field, chemical
composition). Recently, similar effects (mixed-valence,
Kondo fluctuations, heavy Fermi liquid) have been reported
to exist in some Eu-based compounds. Unlike Ce (Yb), Eu has
a multiple electron (hole) occupancy of its 4f shell, and
the magnetic Eu2+ state (4f7) has no orbital component in
the usual LS coupling scheme, which can lead to a quite
different and interesting physics. In the EuCu2(SixGe1−x)2
series, where the valence can be tuned by varying the Si/Ge
ratio, it has been reported that a significant valence
fluctuation can exist even in the magnetic order regime.
This paper presents a detailed study of the latter material
using different microscopic probes (XANES, Mössbauer
spectroscopy, elastic and inelastic neutron scattering), in
which the composition dependence of the magnetic order and
dynamics across the series is traced back to the change in
the Eu valence state. In particular, the results support the
persistence of valence fluctuations into the
antiferromagnetic state over a sizable composition range
below the critical Si concentration xc≈0.65. The sequence
of magnetic ground states in the series is shown to reflect
the evolution of the magnetic spectral response.},
