Abstract

Supercooled liquids may offer fascinating phenomena as compared with the normal state. In the case of supercooled paramagnetic liquids, completely different phenomena in high magnetic fields should be observed thanks to the high undercooling leading to higher magnetization and very strong magnetic coupling in the liquids. Here, we report the measurement of an undercooled pure liquid metal with a higher magnetization than the solid at the same temperature. We also observe the normal field instability pattern formation in the undercooled melt. Although the origin of the high magnetism of the liquid remains unclear, we discuss the possibility of a short range ordering effect.
