Joćo Amaral is doing his Ph.D on The Magnetocaloric Effect. He is
working with several compounds of different families and is also dealing
with applications of the MCE, with special attention to our prototype.
His work also includes the application of Landau and mean-field theory
to the study of the MCE.
Advisor:
Vitor Amaral
Present Research Interests
1. MCE materials, namely manganites and GdSiGe systems.
2. Developing magnetic cooling devices
3. The study of the MCE kinetics in 1st-order magnetic transition
materials
