✦ Synopsis

On the basis of extended periodic Anderson model with antiferromagnetic (AFM) exchange and s-f exchange interactions the energy spectrum of heavy-fermion (HF) AFM metals is calculated. The quasiparticle band structure in collinear AFM phase is described by four splitted bands one of which is very narrow (order of exchange interaction constant) and lies in the vicinity of a localized level. Application of an external magnetic field causes a canting of the sublattice magnetization and due to s-f exchange interaction strongly modifies the HF band picture. Thus eight different quasiparticle bands appear. Their evolution when temperature and magnetic field change is studied.
