Abstract:
Magnetoresistance studies on RPd(2)Si (R = Tb, Dy and Lu) compounds show large negative magnetoresistance (MR) in TbPd(2)Si and DyPd(2)Si near the magnetic ordering temperature. Positive MR at low temperature in the ferromagnetic Dy compound is shown to arise from the orbital contribution (the Lorentz force effect). As a consequence, a deviation from the linear relation between MR and isothermal entropy change (i.e. the magnetocaloric effect) is observed. In the case of the Tb compound, anomalous magnetoresistance behavior is observed at 3 K, where the resistivity is found to be different before and after magnetic field cycling. These results suggest complex magnetic behavior in TbPd(2)Si.

Diamagnetism
Diamagnetism was discovered by Anton Brugmans in 1778 when he observed that bismuth gets repelled by magnetic fields, thus theorizing that diamagnets get repelled by magnets.
Magnetic Susceptibility and Permeability
When diamagnetic materials are placed under an external magnetic field, the moments opposite to the field are induced. Hence, the susceptibility for diamagnets has a minimal negative value of 10-5–10-6. Since...
