Kondo materials exhibit extremely rich physics, from unconventional superconductivity to topological phases. Unfortunately, for a real material, direct solution of the Kondo lattice is practically impossible. Here, Simeth et al. present a tractable approach to this problem, showing how a multi-orbital periodic Anderson model can be reduced to a Kondo lattice model, and be applied to relevant materials and quantitatively validated with neutron spectroscopy.
