The thermal stability, magnetic and magnetocaloric properties of Gd55Co35M10 (M = Si, Zr and Nb) melts-pun ribbons were studied. The relatively high reduced glass transition temperature (Tx1/Tm > 0.60) and low melting point (Tm) resulted in excellent glass forming ability (GFA). The Curie tempera...
