Using Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations measured in URu2Si2 over a broad range in a magnetic field of 11-45 T, we find a cascade of field-induced Fermi surface changes within the hidden order phase I and further signatures of oscillations within field-induced phases III and V [previously discovered by Kim et al., [Phys. Rev. Lett. 91, 256401 (2003)]. A comparison of kinetic and Zeeman energies indicates a pocket-by-pocket polarization of the Fermi surface leading up to the destruction of the hidden order phase I at ≈35 T. The anisotropy of the Zeeman energy driving the transitions in URu2Si2 points to an itinerant hidden order parameter involving quasiparticles whose spin degrees of freedom depart significantly from those of free electrons. |
