Motivated by recent studies on the quasi-one-dimensional (1D) antiferromagnet BaCo2V2O8, we investigate the Tomonaga-Luttinger-liquid properties of the 1 D S = 1/2 XXZ Heisenberg-Ising model in magnetic fields. By using the Bethe ansatz solution, thermodynamic quantities and the divergence exponent of the NMR relaxation rate are calculated. We observe a magnetization minimum as a function of temperature (T) close to the critical field. As the magnetic field approaches the critical field, the minimum temperature asymptotically approaches the universal relation in agreement with the recent results by Maeda et al. We observe T-linear specific heat below the temperature of the magnetization minimum. The field dependence of its coefficient agrees with the results based on conformal field theory. The field dependence of the divergence exponent of the NMR relaxation rate with decreasing temperature is obtained, indicating a change in the critical properties. The results are discussed in connection with experiments on BaCo2V2O8.
