The exchange bias effect obtained after zero field cooling (ZEB) not only saves energy, but also makes the device easier to control and reduces the size of the device. In this work, ZEB effect under different measurement field is obtained in Ni50Mn37Ga13 alloy, further, combining the macroscopic...

The exchange bias effect obtained after zero field cooling (ZEB) not only saves energy, but also makes the device easier to control and reduces the size of the device. In this work, ZEB effect under different measurement field is obtained in Ni 50 Mn 37 Ga 13 alloy, further, combining the...

Unlike previous studies in which a single index was used to measure audit quality, this study establishes a new comprehensive index to measure audit quality via Discretionary Accrual, as estimated by Jones' basic model (1991) and Audit Opinions. The former is used to measure the quality of...
