Abstract The change of the magnetization direction in amorphous ferromagnets by the application of a magnetic field and a tensile stress is investigated by magnetoresistivity measurements. Attention is focussed on permanently remaining influences on the domain structure induced by stress annealing treatments. To observe any dependence on the sign of the magnetostrictionλ s, we investigated the amorphous Co75−x Mn x B25 system where the sign ofλ s changes from negative to positive values with increasing Mn content. Surprisingly the stress-annealed samples showed a similar behavior independent of the sign of the magnetostriction.
