Abstract
The electrical properties of ferromagnetic Ni2MnGa and Co2CrGa Heusler alloys are measured in the temperature range 4–900 K. The effect of the energy gap near the Fermi level in the electronic spectrum on the behavior of electrical resistivity and absolute differential thermopower is discussed.
