Magnetic and transport properties in Gd$_{1-x}$Sr$_x$CoO$_{3}$ ($x$=   0.10-0.70)
  Magnetic and transport properties of polycrystalline Gd$_{1-x}$Sr$_x$CoO$_{3}$ ($x$= 0.10-0.70) are investigated systemically. Cluster-glass magnetism for $x \leq$ 0.45 and long-range ferromagnetic order in higher doping level are observed. Transport measurements indicate insulator-like behaviors for the samples with $x \leq$ 0.30, and an insulator-metal (IM) transition around $x$ = 0.35, and metallic behaviors for higher $x$ samples. In contrast to La$_{1-x}$Sr$_{x}$COO$_{3}$, the striking feature is that the system reenters insulator-like state for $x \geq$ 0.60, and the long-range ferromagnetic order and IM transition take place in samples with higher Sr content. It could be attributed to the enhancement of low-spin state stability for the trivalent Co ions due to the small radius of Gd$^{3+}$ ion.
