Abstract

YbNi2B2C is an anisotropic heavy fermion compound with a coherence temperature of about 10 K. We report and discuss our recent measurements of the thermal expansion to temperatures below 1K and our measurements of the magnetostriction to about 18T. This work was supported supported by the National Science Foundation under DMR- 0305397.
