Abstract
An electron spin resonance (ESR) study of the heavy fermion compound for fields up to reveals a strongly anisotropic signal in the Kondo state below . A similarity between the dependence of the ESR parameters and that of the specific heat and the nuclear magnetic resonance data gives evidence that the ESR response is given by heavy fermions. Tuning the Kondo effect on the states with magnetic fields and temperature 2–25 K yields a gradual change of the ESR factor and linewidth which reflects the evolution of the Kondo state in this Kondo lattice system.
