Popis: | We study the low energy states of Kondo alloys as function of the magnetic impurity concentration per site, x, and the conduction electron average site occupation, nc. Using two complementary approaches, the mean-field coherent potential approximation and the strong coupling limit, we identify and characterize two different Fermi liquid regimes. We propose that both regimes are separated by a Lifshitz transition at x = nc. Indeed, we predict a discontinuity of the number of quasiparticles which are enclosed in the Fermi surface. This feature could provide a scenario for the non-Fermi liquid properties that were recently observed in Kondo alloy systems around x = nc. 5 pages, 2 figures |
