摘要: Structural, magnetic, and transport properties have been investigated in off-stochiometric bulk Ni55.2Mn18.1Ga26.7 alloy. The alloy undergoes an austenite-martensite phase transition ferromagnetic state at 264 K. temperature field dependence of electrical resistivity studies revealed that the electron-electron scattering is dominant determining below 80 K, while higher temperatures (80–300 K), electron-magnon as well electron-phonon dominate. A negative magnetoresistance value 7% maximum near TC (∼283 K) 7 T has obtained Also a magnetocaloric (ΔSM) −1.3 J/kg K observed around
