A study has been made of the effect of partially replacing cadmium by various elements on the martensitic transformation occurring in the stoichiometric alloy AuCd. The shift in the Ms temperature due to the presence of the foreign solute atom is interpreted in terms of atomic size and electronegativity differences.
