Abstract
A simple model for a non-dilute alloy containing giant spin clusters is used to calculate the spin contribution to the resistivity, the neutron cross-section, and the specific heat Cv. The model is expected to be applicable to Ni-Cu alloys near the critical concentration for ferromagnetism. Reasonable, semi-quantitative agreement with resistivity, elastic neutron scattering and low temperature specific heat measurements on Ni-Cu is obtained for a range of concentrations and temperaturesKeywords
