Abstract
The rate of spin-glass entropy increase on heating begins to diminish in the region of the spin-glass freezing temperature (). This is seen most clearly in a plot of (spin-glass specific heat divided by temperature) versus temperature. The spin-glass entropy gained on heating from absolute zero to is roughly equal to that found above . This general behavior has been found for compositions in the range 0.083 to 0.88 at.% Mn.
