Abstract
We uncover the magnetic, electrical transport properties and universal magneto-resistance scaling nature of cubic NiMnCoIn with nominal compositions of x = 0.05 and 0.1. Positive Weiss temperature, magnetic saturation in relatively low fields, non-hysteretic and non-coercive signatures confirm soft-ferromagnetic behavior of the alloys. Formation of random ferromagnetic clusters in the paramagnetic state for x = 0.1 is noticed through Griffith’s phase signatures in inverse susceptibility. Rhodes–Wohlfarth analysis confirms the itinerant magnetic nature. These alloys exhibit metallic character with Fermi liquid behavior at low temperatures. Relatively smaller negative magneto-resistance indicates the suppression of itinerant spin fluctuations and incoherent scattering of conduction electrons. Second order magnetic phase transition is inferred from a well-scaled normalized magneto-resistance independent of magnetic field strength. Our study stimulates interest to unravel the ground state physical and magnetic properties of substituted (non-magnetic/magnetic for Mn Ni and In) soft-ferromagnetic NiMnIn.

期刊介绍:
Results in Physics is an open access journal offering authors the opportunity to publish in all fundamental and interdisciplinary areas of physics, materials science, and applied physics. Papers of a theoretical, computational, and experimental nature are all welcome. Results in Physics accepts papers that are scientifically sound, technically correct and provide valuable new knowledge to the physics community. Topics such as three-dimensional flow and magnetohydrodynamics are not within the scope of Results in Physics.
Results in Physics welcomes three types of papers:
1. Full research papers
2. Microarticles: very short papers, no longer than two pages. They may consist of a single, but well-described piece of information, such as:
- Data and/or a plot plus a description
- Description of a new method or instrumentation
- Negative results
- Concept or design study
3. Letters to the Editor: Letters discussing a recent article published in Results in Physics are welcome. These are objective, constructive, or educational critiques of papers published in Results in Physics. Accepted letters will be sent to the author of the original paper for a response. Each letter and response is published together. Letters should be received within 8 weeks of the article''s publication. They should not exceed 750 words of text and 10 references.
