with the addition of a metal contribution. The specific features observed in the temperature dependence of the electrical resistance curve suggest that in this alloy the phase transition between the cubic austenitic phase and martensitic phase with lower symmetry, characteristic of ferromagnetic nonstoichiometric Heusler alloys, occurs at an unusually high temperature.
