Anomalous enhancement of the Nernst effect at the crossover between a Fermi liquid and a strange metal
A strange-metal state appears in many strongly correlated materials, so understanding its nature is a crucial problem in condensed matter physics. This knowledge could provide important insight into high-tempe...
