Non-Fermi-liquid (NFL) behavior of the specific heat C(T) of two-dimensional (2D) liquid 3 He , first uncovered in measurements almost 20 years ago, is explained in terms of intrinsic properties of this system that emerge when its density rises and the liquid becomes strongly correlated. The occurrence of a T-independent β term in C(T) is attributed to satisfaction of the conditions for Dulong–Petit behavior by the boson part of the free energy. This unexpected classicality stems from softening of the transverse zero-sound mode (TZSM) in the density region where the anomaly in C(T), associated with a quantum critical point (QCP), is observed.

An effective Hamiltonian of the Anderson single-impurity model with finite-range Coulomb interactions is derived near a particular limit, which is analogous to the Toulouse limit of the ordinary Kondo problem, and the physical properties around the mixed valence quantum critical point are calculated. At this quantum critical point, the local moment is only partially quenched and X-ray edge singularities are exhibited. Around this point, a new type of non-Fermi liquid behavior is predicted with an extra specific heat C imp ~ T1/4 + AT ln T and spin-susceptibility χ imp ~T−3/4 + B ln T.
