Abstract
This paper reports the use of machine learning to predict materials with a large magnetocaloric effect (MCE), leading to the experimental discovery of a gigantic MCE in HoB₂ near the hydrogen liquefaction temperature. HoB₂ exhibits a magnetic entropy change of 40.1 J kg⁻¹ K⁻¹ (0.35 J cm⁻³ K⁻¹) for a field change of 5 T, making it a promising candidate for hydrogen liquefaction and low-temperature magnetic cooling applications.
