Abstract

Magnetic field effects on the transformation from the hexagonal close-packed ϵ-phase to the ferromagnetic L10 τ-phase were evaluated for Mn-Al alloys annealed at 573, 623 and 673 K in magnetic fields up to 15 T. The phase transformation from the ϵ-phase to the τ-phase was enhanced by the magnetic field for the 623 K annealing temperature. These in-field annealing effects are explained by the Zeeman energy of the ferromagnetic τ -phase.
