Abstract

A correlation between the magnetic part of the entropy and magnetoresistance has been studied using measurements of the resistivity, magnetoresistance, and magnetization of the Ni50Mn35In12Si3 and Ni50Mn35In11Si4 Heusler alloys. It has been shown that although the variations of the entropy and the magnetoresistance are observed to be maximal within the same temperature intervals in the vicinity of the first-order and second-order phase transitions, there is no universal correlation between these effects.
