Studying the Magnetic Properties of CoSi Single Crystals
  The magnetic properties of CoSi single crystals have been measured in a range of temperatures $T = 5.5 - 450$ K and magnetic field strengths $H \leq 11$ kOe. A comparison of the results for crystals grown in various laboratories allowed the temperature dependence of magnetic susceptibility $\chi(T) = M(T)/H$ to be determined for a hypothetical "ideal" (free of magnetic impurities and defects) CoSi crystal. The susceptibility of this ideal crystal in the entire temperature range exhibits a diamagnetic character. The $\chi(T)$ value significantly increases in absolute value with decreasing temperature and exhibits saturation at the lowest temperatures studied. For real CoSi crystals of four types, paramagnetic contributions to the susceptibility have been evaluated and nonlinear (with respect to the field) contributions to the magnetization have been separated and taken into account in the calculations of $\chi(T)$.
