摘要
Dynamics of the disordered heavy-fermion model of Miranda et al. are calculated using an expression for the spectral function of the Anderson model that is consistent with quantum Monte Carlo results. We compute Sigma(omega) for three distributions of Kondo scales including the distribution of Bernal et al. for UCu(5-)xPd(x). The corresponding low-temperature optical conductivity shows a low-frequency pseudogap, a negative optical mass enhancement, and a linear in frequency transport scattering rate, consistent with results in Y(1-x)UxPd(3) and UCu5-xPdx. The formalism is strictly valid for a dilute system of Kondo scatterers like Y1-xUxPd3, but the leading frequency behavior at low T (much lower than bulk T-k) hold for lattice systems as well.
