Abstract
The martensitic and magnetic transitions of Ni 54 Ga 27 Fe 19 alloy were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray powder diffraction and with a vibrating sample magnetometer. The alloy is martensitically transformed from a L2 1 to a martensite phase with a 14M (7R) structure. The ferromagnetic transition is also accompanied by the martensitic transformation from a paramagnetic parent phase to a ferromagnetic martensite phase in the temperature interval between M s (= 293 K) and M f (= 274 K). The Ni-Ga-Fe system is promising as a ferromagnetic shape memory alloy.

Magnetic-field-induced shape recovery by reverse phase transformation.

TL;DR: The magnetic-field-induced shape recovery of a compressively deformed NiCoMnIn alloy is reported, attributing this deformation behaviour to a reverse transformation from the antiferromagnetic (or paramagnetic) martensitic to the ferromagnetic parent phase in the Ni45Co5Mn36.7In13.3 single crystal.

Modelling the phase diagram of magnetic shape memory Heusler alloys

TL;DR: In this article, the authors have modelled the phase diagram of magnetic shape memory alloys of the Heusler type by using the phenomenological Ginzburg-Landau theory and found that the driving force for structural transformations is considerably enhanced by the extremely low lying optical modes of Ni, which interfere with the acoustical modes enhancing phonon softening of the TA2 mode.
