The plots of H/M versus M 2 (Arrott curve) for (a) Ho5Pd2, (c) (Ho0.75Y0.25)5Pd2, and (e) (Ho0.5Y0.5)5Pd2 at different temperatures. The isothermal magnetization curves measured with the magnetizing process up to 5 T. The magnetic entropy change Δ S M as a function of temperature for various magnetic field changes for (b) Ho5Pd2, (d) (Ho0.75Y0.25)5Pd2, and (f) (Ho0.5Y0.5)5Pd2.
