\textbf{Metamagnetism and Quantum Acoustic Oscillations in UPt}$_{\mathbf{3}}$\textbf{:}

We present results of high resolution sound velocity measurements performed at the NHMFL, Tallahassee, in magnetic fields upto 33 T in a dilution refrigerator at temperatures down to 35 mK. For magnetic field parallel to the basal plane the observed quantum acoustic oscillations show a change in frequency as expected at the metamagnetic transition of 20 T. However, we find a similar abrupt change in frequency at 25 T for magnetic field parallel to the c-axis. The implications of this fermi surface instability even though there is no metamagnetic transition in this orientation will be discussed.
