Uranium ruthenium silicide (URu<sub>2</sub>Si<sub>2</sub>) is a heavy fermion alloy composed of uranium, ruthenium, and silicon. URu<sub>2</sub>Si<sub>2</sub> has the same '122' tetragonal crystal structure as many other compounds of present condensed matter research. URu<sub>2</sub>Si<sub>2</sub> is a superconductor with a hastatic order (HO) phase below a temperature of 17.5 K. Below this temperature, it is magnetic, and below about 1.5 K it superconducts. However, the nature of the ordered phase below 17.5K is still under debate despite a wide variety of scenarios that have been proposed to explain this phase.
