We have verified an existence of a quantum critical point (QCP) in heavy‐fermion superconductor CeRhSi3 under magnetic fields and pressures by using the electrical resistivity measurements. Firstly, we revealed magnetic field–temperature (H–T) phase diagrams at several pressures: below and above the...
