Abstract
We show that antiferromagnetism in lightly () Sn-doped terminates at a critical field . Electrical transport and thermodynamic measurements reveal the effective mass not to diverge, suggesting that cubic is representative of a critical spin-density wave (SDW) scenario, unlike the local quantum critical points reported in anisotropic systems such as and . The existence of a maximum in at a lower field may be interpreted as a field-induced crossover from local moment to SDW behavior as the Néel temperature falls below the Fermi temperature.
