Magnetic phase diagram of CePdAl for Bc obtained from measurements of different properties. The subscript i for αi and λi denotes the different axes a or c. Open circles indicate the approximate temperature of the broad shoulders of C4f/T below TN, gray squares the position of the maxima of the Schottky anomalies, and red open diamonds the temperature of the C4f maximum. The inset shows an enlarged view of the AF2 and AF3 phases. (b) Entropy S(B) at different fixed temperatures. (c) Frustration parameter fS = TS/TN vs. B. For B >Bc3, C4f/T at T = 0.5 K is plotted against B. All lines are guides to the eye. Figure reproduced with permission from Lucas et al., Ref. [64]. Copyright 2017 by the American Physical Society.
