Crossover from non-Fermi liquid to Fermi liquid behavior close to a quantum critical point: A brief review

The nesting of the Fermi surfaces of an electron and a hole pocket separated by a nesting vector Q and the interaction between electrons gives rise to itinerant antiferromagnetism. The order can gradually be suppressed by mismatching the nesting and a quantum critical point is obtained as the Néel temperature tends to zero. We review our results on the specific heat, the quasi-particle linewidth, the electrical resistivity, the amplitudes of de Haas-van Alphen oscillations and the dynamical spin susceptibility.
