Figure 3.

(a) ΔStSt(0) versus 1−Ts/Tc (continuousline—parabolic to a very good approximation). Symbols correspond to experimental data for Ni50MnxIn1−x (diamonds), Ni45Co5MnxIn1−x (squares) and Ni42.5Co7.5MnxIn1−x (triangles) metamagnetic shape-memory alloys. Circles correspond to a Ni45Co5Mn36.7In13.3 alloy subjected to heat treatment that enables the atomic order to be selected [ΔSt(0)=40 J K kg−1]. For Ni50MnxIn1−x, ΔSt(0)= 32 J K kg−1; for Ni45Co5MnxIn1−x, ΔSt(0)=60 J K kg−1; and for Ni42.5Co7.5MnxIn1−x, ΔSt(0)=50 J K kg−1. (b) ΔSt(0) and Tc (in reduced units) versus Inline graphic used for scaling the data in panel (a).
