Abstract
Giant magnetically induced strain up to 50 times larger compared to the strain of giant magnetostriction was observed in some Heusler alloys, particularly in Ni–Mn–Ga. In analogy with the shape memory phenomenon this effect was called magnetic shape memory effect. The effect includes two different phenomena: a magnetically induced structural phase transformation (usually a martensitic transformation) and a magnetically induced structural reorientation occurring in the martensitic phase. Transformation behavior, structure of the martensite, and phenomenology of the magnetically induced reorientation are described. The description is based mainly on the well-studied compound Ni–Mn–Ga.

Publications about MSM or MIR effect increases nearly exponentially, the quoted literature can be only small incomplete selection. There are specialized conferences as, e.g., ESOMAT and ICOMAT, which in part (particularly after year 2000) concentrate on MSM effect.
