Abstract
The Kondo effect, known for nearly 80 years is one of the first discovered correlation phenomena in solid state physics [1]. The phenomenon arises due to the presence of magnetic elements with partially filled d-, or f-orbitals in a non-magnetic host metal.

Notes
- 1.
Since the localized magnetic moments and their correlation to the conduction electrons may give rise to electron quasi–particle masses up to thousand times higher than the bare electron mass, these materials are called heavy–fermion systems.
- 2.
The simulation and the many-body calculations originate from collaboration with Piet E. Dargel, Robert Peters and Thomas Pruschke from the Institute for Theoretical Physics at the University of Göttingen, Germany.
- 3.
The first-principles calculations originate from collaboration with Mohammed Bouhassoune and Samir Lounis from the Institute for Advanced Simulation at the Research Centre Jülich, Germany.
