Simulating the giant magnetocaloric effect-from mean-field theory to microscopic models

Magnetocaloric materials are recognized as one of the major classes of magnetic materials for energy applications, and can be either employed as refrigerants in heat-pumping devices, or in thermomagnetic generators for energy conversion/harvesting. For both applications, having a material that prese...
