Abstract
We present surface resistance measurements of the archetypical heavy-fermion compound CeCu6 for frequencies between 3.7 and 18 GHz and temperatures from 1.2 to 6 K. The measurements were performed with superconducting stripline resonators that allow simultaneous measurements at multiple frequencies. The surface resistance of CeCu6 exhibits a pronounced decrease below 3 K, in consistence with dc resistivity. The low-temperature frequency dependence of the surface resistance follows a power law with exponent 2/3. While for conventional metals this would be consistent with the anomalous skin effect, we discuss the present situation of a heavy-fermion metal, where this frequency dependence might instead stem from the influence of electronic correlations.
