Abstract

We review our recent¹⁷O NMR results on NpO₂. The compound is suggested to exhibit a magnetic octupolar phase transition at T ₀=26 K. From the temperature dependence of¹⁷O- NMR spectrum, the occurrence of two inequivalent oxygen sites has been confirmed below T₀. Furthermore, a dramatic dependence of nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rates on applied field has been observed above and below T ₀. These NMR results contrast sharply with those for the antiferromagnet UO₂ and thus highlight the exotic nature of the phase transition in NpO₂.
