Magnetic phase diagrams of the metamagnetic shape memory alloys Ni50-xCoxMn31.5Ga18.5 (x = 9 and 9.7) were produced from high-field magnetization measurements up to 56 T. For both compounds, magnetic field induced martensitic transformations are observed at various temperatures below 300 K. Hysteresis of the field-induced transformation shows unconventional temperature dependence: it decreases with decreasing temperature after showing a peak. Magnetic susceptibility measurement, microscopy, and X-ray diffraction data suggest a model incorporating the magnetic anisotropy and Zeeman energy in two variants, which qualitatively explains the thermal and the magnetic field history dependence of the hysteresis in these alloys.

Magnetocaloric effect (MCE), magnetization, specific heat, and magnetostriction measurements were performed in both pulsed and steady high magnetic fields to investigate the magnetocaloric properties of Heusler alloys Ni50-xCoxMn31.5Ga18.5 (x = 9 and 9.7). From direct MCE measurements for Ni41Co9Mn31.5Ga18.5 up to 56 T, a steep temperature drop was observed for magnetic-field-induced martensitic transformation (MFIMT), designated as inverse MCE. Remarkably, this inverse MCE is apparent not only with MFIMT, but also in the magnetic-field-induced austenite phase. Specific heat measurements under steady high magnetic fields revealed that the magnetic field variation of the electronic entropy plays a dominant role in the unconventional magnetocaloric properties of these materials. First-principles based calculations performed for Ni41Co9Mn31.5Ga18.5 and Ni45Co5Mn36.7In13.3 revealed that the magnetic-field-induced austenite phase of Ni41Co9Mn31.5Ga18.5 is more unstable than that of Ni45Co5Mn36.7In13.3 and that it is sensitive to slight tetragonal distortion. We conclude that the inverse MCE in the magnetic-field-induced austenite phase is realized by marked change in the electronic entropy through tetragonal distortion induced by the externally applied magnetic field.
We have studied the effect of Fe addition on the structural and magnetic transitions in the magnetic shape memory alloy Ni-Mn-Ga by substituting systematically each atomic species by Fe. Calorimetric and AC susceptibility measurements have been carri ed out in order to study the magnetic and structural transformation properties. We find that the addition of Fe modifies the structural and magnetic transformation temperatures. Magnetic transition temperatures are displaced to higher values when Fe is substituted into Ni-Mn-Ga, while martensitic and premartensitic transformation temperatures shift to lower values. Moreover, it has been found that the electron per atom concentration essentially governs the phase stability in the quaternary system. However, the observed scaling of transition temperatures with $e/a$ differs from that reported in the related ternary system Ni-Mn-Ga.
In this study, X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) experiments for Ni45Co5Mn36.7In13.3 metamagnetic shape memory alloy were performed under high magnetic fields up to 12 T using a pulsed magnet. Field-induced reverse transformation to austenite phase caused considerable changes in the magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) signals and the magnetic moments of the ferromagnetic coupling between Mn, Ni, and Co were determined. The spin magnetic moment, Mspin, and orbital magnetic moment, Morb, of Mn atom in the induced austenite ferromagnetic phase, estimated based on the magneto-optical sum rule, were 3.2 and 0.13 {mu}B, respectively, resulting in an Morb / Mspin ratio of 0.04. In the element-specific magnetization curves recorded at 150 K, metamagnetic behavior associated with the field-induced reverse transformation is clearly observed and reverse transformation finishing magnetic field and martensitic transformation starting magnetic field are detected. There was almost no difference in the magnetically averaged XAS spectrum for Mn-L2,3 edges between in the martensite and in the magnetic field-induced austenite phases, however, it was visible for Ni, indicating that Ni 3d-electrons mainly contribute to martensitic transformation.

We propose the phase diagram of a new pseudo-ternary compound, CoMnGe_{1-x}Sn_{x}, in the range x less than or equal to 0.1. Our phase diagram is a result of magnetic and calometric measurements. We demonstrate the appearance of a hysteretic magnetos tructural phase transition in the range x=0.04 to x=0.055, similar to that observed in CoMnGe under hydrostatic pressure. From magnetisation measurements, we show that the isothermal entropy change associated with the magnetostructural transition can be as high as 4.5 J/(K kg) in a field of 1 Tesla. However, the large thermal hysteresis in this transition (~20 K) will limit its straightforward use in a magnetocaloric device.
The magnetic, thermal and transport properties as well as electronic band structure of MnPtSi are reported. MnPtSi is a metal that undergoes a ferromagnetic transition at $T_{mathrm{C}}=340$(1) K and a spin-reorientation transition at $T_{mathrm{N}}= 326$(1) K to an antiferromagnetic phase. First-principles electronic structure calculations indicate a not-fully polarized spin state of Mn in a $d^5$ electron configuration with $J=S=3$/2, in agreement with the saturation magnetization of 3~$mu_{mathrm{B}}$ in the ordered state and the observed paramagnetic effective moment. A sizeable anomalous Hall effect in the antiferromagnetic phase alongside the computational study suggests that the antiferromagnetic structure is non-collinear. Based on thermodynamic and resistivity data we construct a magnetic phase diagram. Magnetization curves $M$($H$) at low temperatures reveal a metamagnetic transition of spin-flop type. The spin-flopped phase terminates at a critical point with $T_{mathrm{cr}}approx 300$ K and $H_{mathrm{cr}}approx 10$ kOe, near which a peak of the magnetocaloric entropy change is observed. Using Arrott plot analysis and magnetoresistivity data we argue that the metamagnetic transition is of a first-order type, whereas the strong field dependence of $T_{mathrm{N}}$ and the linear relationship of the $T_{mathrm{N}}$ with $M^2$ hint at its magnetoelastic nature.
