Description/AbstractThe rare-earth nickel borocarbides, with the generic formula RNi{sub 2}B {sub 2}C , have recently been shown to display a rich variety of phenomena. Most striking has been the competition between, and even coexistence of, antiferromagnetism and superconductivity. We have measured the Fermi surface (FS) of LuNi{sub 2}B {sub 2}C , and shown that it possesses nesting features capable of explaining some of the phenomena experimentally observed. In particular, it had previously been conjectured that a particular sheet of FS is responsible for the modulated magnetic structures manifest in some of the series. We report the first direct experimental observation of this sheet. (c) 1999 The American Physical Society.
