Can someone point me to the papers detailing when/where/how heavy fermion superconductors were first synthesized, tested and documented?

I don't quite see the relation. The early post offered books. I'm looking for papers, and the topics they offered were tangential to the one I'm interested in. How can I improve this @David Zaslavsky? – Dylan Sabulsky Nov 15 '12 at 4:39

The real issue is that questions like this, where you ask for a broad list of references, are not appropriate for this site. We've made some exceptions for questions about the standard textbooks in a field, but this isn't one of them, and so it's actually off topic. However, if you were to focus the question, for example something like "Can someone point me to the first paper in which an observation of X was reported?" then it would be fine. (That's the sort of thing you use reference-request for.) – David Zaslavsky Nov 15 '12 at 4:43

alright, edited. – Dylan Sabulsky Nov 15 '12 at 4:46

@DylanSabulsky I'd suggest framing your question differently -- like, ask when heavy fermion superconductors were first synthesized. Maybe someone will cite a reference in their answer. – dbaseman Nov 15 '12 at 8:42

Yeah, what @dbaseman said would be very helpful. Right now it's still kind of the same question disguised under different wording. – David Zaslavsky Nov 15 '12 at 16:30

There's a nice topical review on the arXiv: http://arxiv.org/abs/1202.4114

The first heavy fermion publication was in 1978 by Steglich: http://prl.aps.org/abstract/PRL/v43/i25/p1892_1
