Cu${}_{50-x}$Zr${}_{x}$ (x = 50, 54, 60 and 66.6) polycrystalline alloys were prepared by arc-melting. The crystal structure of the ingots has been examined by X-ray diffraction. Non-equilibrium martensitic phases with monoclinic structure were detected in all the alloys except Cu${}_{33.4}$Zr${}_{66.6}$. Temperature dependencies of electrical resistivity in the temperature range of T = 4 - 300 K have been measured as well as room temperature values of Hall coefficients and thermal conductivity. Electrical resistivity demonstrates anomalous behavior. At the temperatures lower than 20 K, their temperature dependencies are non-monotonous with pronounced minima. At elevated temperatures they have sufficiently non-linear character which cannot be described within framework of the standard Bloch--Gr{u}neisen model. We propose generalized Bloch--Gr{u}neisen model with variable Debye temperature which describes experimental resistivity dependencies with high accuracy. We found that both the electrical resistivity and the Hall coefficients reveal metallic-type conductivity in the Cu-Zr alloys. The estimated values of both the charge carrier mobility and the phonon contribution to thermal and electric conductivity indicate the strong lattice defects and structure disorder.

The stoichiometric Ni$_{50}$Mn$_{25}$In$_{25}$ Heusler alloy transforms from a stable ferromagnetic austenitic ground state to an incommensurate modulated martensitic ground state with a progressive replacement of In with Mn without any pre-transitio
n phases. The absence of pre-transition phases like strain glass in Ni$_{50}$Mn$_{25+x}$In$_{25-x}$ alloys is explained to be the ability of the ferromagnetic cubic structure to accommodate the lattice strain caused by atomic size differences of In and Mn atoms. Beyond the critical value of $x$ = 8.75, the alloys undergo martensitic transformation despite the formation of ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic clusters and the appearance of a super spin glass state.
$Ni_{50-x}Co_{x}Mn_{40}Sn_{10}$ shape memory alloys in the approximate range $5 le x le 10$ display desirable properties for applications as well as intriguing magnetism. These off-stoichiometric Heusler alloys undergo a martensitic phase transformat
ion at a temperature $T_{M}$ of 300 - 400 K, from ferromagnetic (F) to nonferromagnetic, with unusually low thermal hysteresis and a large change in magnetization. The low temperature magnetic structures in the martensitic phase of such alloys, which are distinctly inhomogeneous, are of great interest but are not well understood. Our present use of spin echo NMR, in the large hyperfine fields at $^{55}Mn$ sites, provides compelling evidence that nanoscale magnetic phase separation into F and antiferromagnetic (AF) regions occurs below $T_{M}$ in alloys with x in the range 0 to 7. At finite Co substitution the F regions are found to be of two distinct types, corresponding to high and low local concentrations of Co on Ni sites. Estimates of the size distributions of both the F and AF nanoregions have been made. At x = 7 the AF component is not long-range ordered, even below 4 K, and is quite different to the AF component found at x = 0; by x = 14 the F phase is completely dominant. Of particular interest, we find, for x = 7, that field cooling leads to dramatic changes in the AF regions. These findings provide insight into the origins of magnetic phase separation and superparamagnetism in these complex alloys, particularly their intrinsic exchange bias, which is of considerable current interest.
Magnetic susceptibility of the isostructural Ce(Ni{1-x}Cu{x})5 alloys (0< x <0.9) was studied as a function of the hydrostatic pressure up to 2 kbar at fixed temperatures 77.3 and 300 K, using a pendulum-type magnetometer. A pronounced magnitude of t
he pressure effect is found to be negative in sign and to depend strongly and non-monotonously on the Cu content, showing a sharp maximum in vicinity of x = 0.4. The experimental results are discussed in terms of the Ce valence change under pressure. It has been concluded that the fractional occupation of the f-states, which corresponds to the half-integer valence of Ce ion (3.5), is favorable for the valence instability in alloys studied. For the reference CeNi5 compound the main contributions to magnetic susceptibility and their volume dependence are calculated ab initio within the local spin density approximation (LSDA), and appeared to be in close agreement with experimental data.
Lutetium dodecaboride LuB12 is a simple weak-coupling BCS superconductor with critical temperature Tc = 0.42 K, whilst ZrB12 is a strong-coupling BCS superconductor with the highest critical temperature Tc = 6.0 K among this group of materials. In ca
se of lutetium substitution by zirconium ions in LuB12 the crossover from weak- to strong-coupling superconductor can be studied. We have investigated the evolution of critical temperature Tc and critical field Hc in high-quality single crystalline superconducting samples of Lu(1-x)Zr(x)B12 (0 =< x =< 0.45) by measuring magnetic ac susceptibility between 1 K and 50 mK. To obtain this kind of experimental data, a new susceptometer was designed, constructed and tested, which can work in a wide temperature range of 0.05 K - 3 K in 3He-4He dilution refrigerator. The measurements with this new susceptometer revealed how Tc(x) and Hc(x) increases with increasing concentration of zirconium in Lu(1-x)Zr(x)B12 solid solutions as well as how their superconducting phase diagram develops.
This paper reports high resolution X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) studies on Fe$_{1-x}$Ni$_x$ (x=0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.9) alloys down to 10 K temperature. Core levels and Auger transitions of the alloys except the invar alloy (x=0.4
) exhibit no observable temperature induced changes. The invar alloy exhibits changes in the core levels below 20 K temperature that strongly depend on the core level. Such core level dependent changes with temperature were attributed to the precipitation of spin glass like phase below 20 K only in the invar alloy. Ni L$_3$M$_{45}$M$_{45}$ Auger transition also supported such precipitation below 20 K.
