J. Reske et al., EVIDENCE FOR THE EXISTENCE OF LONG-RANGE MAGNETIC-ORDERING IN A LIQUID UNDERCOOLED METAL, Physical review letters, 75(4), 1995, pp. 737-739
Liquid Co100-xPdx alloys were undercooled below the Curie temperatures
T-C(s) of the ferromagnetic solid phase by using electromagnetic levi
tation. A modified Faraday balance was applied to measure the magnetiz
ation of the undercooled liquid sample as a function of temperature. A
Curie-Weiss behavior is detected. The Curie temperature T-C(l) is det
ermined for the transition from the paramagnetic to the ferromagnetic
state of this metallic liquid with long-range magnetic order. T-C(l) i
s slightly smaller than T-C(s).
