Heat flow measurements and the order of the magnetic transition in (Dy,Gd)Co-2 solid solutions
(Elsevier B.V., 2012-02-05)In this work we present scanning heat flow measurements in the series of compounds Dy1-xGdxCo2 (x = 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3) which reveal a first order character in the magnetic transition for x = 0 and 0.1. the isothermal entropy ...

Magnetocaloric effect in Gd(1-y)DyyAl2
(Elsevier B.V., 2014-01-01)In this work we calculate the magnetic properties and the magnetocaloric effect in Gd-1- yDyyAl2 (y = 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75 and 1). the model Hamiltonian includes contributions from the Zeeman effect, the crystalline electrical ...

Theoretical investigation on the magnetocaloric effect in MnAs using a microscopic model to describe the magnetic and thermal hysteresis
(Elsevier B.V., 2012-06-01)We report the thermal and magnetic hysteresis diagram for mnAs that comes from a microscopic description of a magnetic system through a model Hamiltonian that takes into account the magnetoelastic interaction. the temperature ...
