  The heavy electron Kondo liquid is an emergent state of condensed matter that
displays universal behavior independent of material details. Properties of the
heavy electron liquid are best probed by NMR Knight shift measurements, which
provide a direct measure of the behavior of the heavy electron liquid that
emerges below the Kondo lattice coherence temperature as the lattice of local
moments hybridizes with the background conduction electrons. Because the
transfer of spectral weight between the localized and itinerant electronic
degrees of freedom is gradual, the Kondo liquid typically coexists with the
local moment component until the material orders at low temperatures. The
two-fluid formula captures this behavior in a broad range of materials in the
paramagnetic state. In order to investigate two-fluid behavior and the onset
and physical origin of different long range ordered ground states in heavy
electron materials, we have extended Knight shift measurements to
URu$_2$Si$_2$, CeIrIn$_5$ and CeRhIn$_5$. In CeRhIn$_5$ we find that the
antiferromagnetic order is preceded by a relocalization of the Kondo liquid,
providing independent evidence for a local moment origin of antiferromagnetism.
In URu$_2$Si$_2$ the hidden order is shown to emerge directly from the Kondo
liquid and so is not associated with local moment physics. Our results imply
that the nature of the ground state is strongly coupled with the hybridization
in the Kondo lattice in agreement with phase diagram proposed by Yang and
Pines.
