Recent progress on caloric effects are reviewed. The application of external stimuli such as
magnetic field, hydrostatic pressure, uniaxial stress and electric field give rise respectively to …

We report on the elastocaloric effect in a Cu-Zn-Al shape memory alloy. We show that both
the isothermal entropy and adiabatic temperature changes are large and reproducible upon …

We report on calorimetry under applied hydrostatic pressure and magnetic field at the
antiferromagnetic-ferromagnetic (AFM/FM) transition of Fe 49 Rh 51. Results demonstrate …

Handbook on the Physics and Chemistry of Rare Earths: Including Actinides is a continuous
series of books covering all aspects of rare earth science, including chemistry, life sciences …

Signatures of short range anisotropic ferromagnetic correlations and ferromagnetic
clustering, manifested as unusually large hysteresis and other anomalies of the low …

Differential scanning calorimetry experiments have been performed under magnetic field in
R Co 2 Laves phases compounds (R= Pr, Nd, Tb, Dy, Ho, and Er). The thermodynamical …

Magnetic field dependence of the magnetic entropy change (ΔS) is the key for magnetic
refrigeration. For magnetic materials with a second-order phase transition, the experimental …

Magnetic and structural properties of single crystalline Gd 5 Si 2 Ge 2 under hydrostatic
pressure have been characterized by using magnetization, linear thermal expansion, and …

After approximately 30 years of dormancy, the binary, ternary, and multicomponent
intermetallic compounds of rare earth metals (R) with the group 14 elements (T) at the R 5 T …

Direct observation of the entropy change in a first-order phase transition is obtained by using
a differential scanning calorimeter in which the transition is field-induced under the …
