Description:
Article In the heavy-fermion metal URu 2 Si 2 , direct evidence of symmetry change in the crystal structure at the hidden-order transition has been missing. Using synchrotron X-ray diffraction measurements, Tonegawa et al . observe lattice symmetry breaking from the fourfold tetragonal to twofold orthorhombic structure.
