The magnetic properties of Nd1-xSrxMnO3 system (with x = 1/3, 0.4, and 0.5) have been investigated with magnetization curves in zero field cooling (ZFC) and field cooling (FC) measurements in the temperature range of 77-350K. It is indicated that the temperature dependence of magnetization has fitted in the Block’s law in the region of T < TC at all samples. The magnetoresistance of Nd1-xSrxMnO3 system has been determined with low magnetic fields of 0.0-0.4T in low temperatures. It is found that the obtained magnetoresistance ratio (CMR) has decreased by increasing Sr concentrations. The maximum values of CMR (%) have obtained at around the region of metal-insulator transition temperature (TP). The dependence of maximum CMR (%) on the Sr concentrations has been in accordance with the hyperbola function in this system.
