Zusammenfassung:The sound velocity vs(T) has been investigated for La1-XCaXMnO3 (0.46X0.50) in applied fields up to . The characteristic vs(T) softening and the subsequent hardening are observed below the ferromagnetic transition temperature Tc. The gradual vs(T) softening above the charge-order (CO) transition temperature TCO and the vs(T) hardening just below TCO are also observable. The vs(T) softening above TCO is at first enhanced and then reduced with increasing applied field. These results can be understood on the basis of the enhanced spin-lattice and charge-lattice interaction.
