Abstract
A tunnelling conductivity between a heavy fermion metal and a
simple metallic point is considered. We show that at low
temperatures this conductivity can be noticeably dissymmetrical
with respect to the change of voltage bias. The dissymmetry can be
observed in experiments on the heavy fermion metals whose
electronic system has undergone the fermion condensation quantum
phase transition.
